A flexible way to buy HR support
For the HR issue that needs attention now.
Not every business needs ongoing HR support. Sometimes you need a trusted expert to review the facts, explain your options and help you complete a specific piece of work.
HR On-Demand gives small and growing employers access to practical advice without a subscription. We agree what help you need before work starts, from a focused call through to documents or meeting support.
This option works well for:
- An urgent employee-relations question
- A difficult conversation or meeting
- A contract, policy or letter review
- Disciplinary, grievance or capability advice
- Short-term additional HR capacity
- A one-off compliance concern

Common questions
HR On-Demand questions, answered.
For advice about a live situation, speak to our team in confidence.
What is HR On-Demand?
It is flexible HR support for a specific issue or task without a monthly retainer. We agree the support required and how it will be charged before starting.
How is On-Demand HR priced?
Pricing depends on the advice, time and deliverables required. Dekela explains the proposed scope and cost before undertaking chargeable work.
Can you help with an urgent disciplinary or grievance?
Yes. We can advise on immediate next steps, help protect a fair process and provide documentation or meeting support where agreed.
Can I move from On-Demand to a retainer later?
Yes. If your need becomes regular, we can discuss whether a rolling 30-day retainer would provide better continuity and value.
