- Where HR Teams Call Us In
Three Jobs That Are Harder From The Inside
Sometimes an outside perspective makes the work easier, especially when you know the people involved.
Workplace Investigations
Impartiality is hard when you have to work with both of them on Monday.
That is structure, not skill. We run it at arm’s length using a process built to meet your obligations under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, with written findings clear enough to hold up if the matter goes further. We handle the investigation so you can focus on supporting your team and managing what comes next.
Training & Workshops
The same message lands differently from someone outside the reporting structure.
Group programs in leadership, respect in the workplace, and compliance, plus help working out which ones your team actually needs. Built around your people and facilitated by someone who has run the room before. You set the direction. We take care of the prep and the podium.
Your number matters. It carries further when it is backed by the right data.
Market data, job evaluation, and pay equity reviews. You get third-party benchmarks that hold up in a budget meeting or at a board table, giving you a stronger foundation for your recommendations.

- When You Need Extra HR Support
H2R is Here When You Need Us
You may not need us today.
Most HR leaders find us the week something lands that has to be handled from outside. An investigation. A comp review that needs a third-party number. A leave with nobody to cover it.
If something comes up later, you’ll know exactly who to call.
