What Was Needed

As Frontline expanded, they encountered challenges in managing their growing workforce efficiently and maintaining compliance with HR regulations. They needed streamlined processes to support their mission of facilitating recovery and employment pathways.

Frontline Make Change embarked on a journey to expand their services and reach more individuals in need of addiction support and employment opportunities. However, with growth came a set of challenges that threatened to impede their progress:

As Frontline transitioned from a small team to a larger organisation, they encountered difficulties in managing the increasing number of employees efficiently. Manual processes became cumbersome and time-consuming, leading to inefficiencies in HR management. With a focus on providing confidential services and employment opportunities, Frontline had to navigate complex regulatory requirements and compliance standards. Keeping track of evolving HR regulations and ensuring adherence to policies posed significant challenges.

Frontline's dual mission of offering addiction support and providing employment pathways required a delicate balance. They needed HR processes that could support staff development, performance management, and communication while maintaining a supportive environment for individuals in recovery.
