Additional Services we offer

Workplace Risk Assessments

The costs of workplace-related injuries are more than just financial. Workplace risk assessments allow you to get on the front foot with injury prevention in the workplace to save money, create a more productive, efficient workplace and foster and retain a happy, healthier team.

Psychometric Testing

When your people thrive, your company thrives. Psychometric testing uses a data-driven approach to help you make the best HR decisions. It also enables you to bring out your employees’ full potential and build a skilled, motivated and energised workforce.

Outplacement

Organisational change needs to be handled correctly to minimise stress on your teams. By making quality and supportive outplacement services available to your employees, you will empower them for the next step in their career, while sustaining your brand, operations and reputation.

Workplace Inductions

Health and safety starts at the beginning, with inductions to ensure employees have the necessary information right away to work safely and efficiently. Inductions help reduce the number of incidents and accidents, while also contributing to higher job satisfaction as employees feel more comfortable and confident in the workplace.

Payroll Service

Searson Buck are also a provider of workplace solutions encompassing external payroll services, bookkeeping, and BAS preparation to new and existing clients. We can manage this aspect of your human resources and take the headache out of adding to your workforce.

Search & Sourcing

Our extensive networks span across Tasmania and beyond, positioning us as your go-to resource for challenging recruitment needs. Whether you're grappling with a hard-to-fill position or aiming for a comprehensive search to identify the perfect individual with a specific skill set, we've got the expertise to assist you.

Services

Staffing and Recruitment

We offer staffing and recruitment services in temporary, permanent, and contract talent sourcing to meet the diverse needs of Tasmanian businesses. With extensive networks across the state and beyond, we excel in filling hard-to-source positions and conducting thorough executive searches to find candidates with the right skills and cultural fit.


Our expertise extends to detailed reference checking, ensuring every hire supports your business goals and contributes to long-term success.

Assessment Tools

Functional and Movement Assessments

We partner with Longitude6 to offer advanced functional and movement assessments, helping businesses mitigate risks and prevent workplace injuries. Using cutting-edge motion capture and wearable technology, Longitude6 evaluates a candidate's mobility, stability, and movement quality, identifying potential injury risks and improving overall workplace efficiency.


Their Delta Method combines technology with a human-centered approach to analyse employees functional capacity and health behaviours, providing key recommendations for injury prevention across the entire employment lifecycle. By investing in injury prevention, businesses can enhance productivity, safeguard their reputation, and improve employee wellbeing and retention.


Psychometric and Skills Assessments

We use psychometric assessments to help businesses make smarter hiring decisions and unlock their employees full potential. Partnering with SHL, the global leader in talent innovation, we offer scientifically validated tools that evaluate candidates skills, knowledge, abilities, and personality traits.


These assessments provide valuable insights into a person’s work style, strengths, and development areas, ensuring a strong fit with your team and business needs. From tools like the Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ) for leadership and managerial roles to the RemoteWorkQ for assessing remote work readiness, we cater to a range of HR needs.


We also offer specialised options like the Person-Job Match Report to align talent with job requirements, the Graduate Solution to elevate graduate recruitment, and Mobilize for leadership and succession planning. By using these data-driven insights, employers can reduce turnover, improve team performance, and build a motivated, high-performing workforce.

Workplace Support

Safety

Our workplace health and safety services help businesses proactively address the risks of workplace-related injuries, which can have financial, operational, and emotional impacts. Through assessments and preventative measures, we empower employers to create safer, more efficient environments that boost productivity and support employee well-being. By anticipating risks and building a culture of safety, our services help businesses save costs and retain happier, healthier teams.


Outplacement

Organisational change can be challenging, but our outplacement services are designed to support both your business and your employees through times of transition. Whether it’s redundancy, redeployment, retirement, or leadership changes, we offer programs that can help prepare employees for their next career step while protecting your brand, operations, and reputation. This includes career coaching, mature age transition programs, and AtlasPlus™, a cost-effective online support package. By providing compassionate, practical support during periods of change, we help businesses minimise stress, uphold their reputation, and ensure smoother transitions for their teams.


Inductions

We understand the importance of workplace inductions in ensuring health, safety, and employee satisfaction from day one. Inductions equip new hires and contractors with essential information about workplace policies, safety procedures, and expectations, helping to reduce accidents, improve productivity, and foster confidence in their roles. By partnering with WorkPro, an online employee induction program, we can ensure a smooth and well-structured onboarding process. This not only supports legal requirements in some industries but is also a positive and productive experience for team members.


Outsourced Payroll Services

We offer expert payroll services designed to reduce your administrative burden, and ensure accuracy, compliance, and efficiency. From managing employee salaries and benefits to navigating complex compliance requirements and BAS preparation, we streamline payroll processes so your team can focus on their roles. We support small and large businesses alike, removing the challenges of payroll management for you.
