HR Generalist Foundations

Real portfolio pieces built during the course, not a certificate for its own sake. Each one is work you can show.

• Probation decision recordOne page on a probation decision: every date including the ones nobody recorded, what the employee was actually told about the standard, which process the dates leave available, what you can support and what you cannot, and who owns the decision.
• Right to work check recordOne row per starter: the document, what it evidences and what it does not, who carried out the check and on what date, whether the original was seen with the person, what must happen before the start date, and the process change that stops the defect recurring.
• Concern intake noteThe record of a raised concern: the reporter's own words, your reading kept separate from them, exactly what you promised about confidentiality, the options as they genuinely stand, what you deliberately have not done yet, and what was escalated and why.
• Payroll change logEvery change requested before a cutoff, what evidence supported it, whether it was entered, and for anything not entered the reason and the consequence for the person being paid. Written so payroll, finance and the employee could each follow it.
• Return to work planA phased return recorded properly: what the role actually requires, what the fit note advised, what was agreed with the employee, where the agreement differs from the advice and why, the review points, and what happens if the phased return is not working.
