Most UK small businesses manage HR with a combination of spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, paper files and memory. It works — until it doesn't. A missed right-to-work re-check carries a penalty of up to £60,000 per worker. An expired food hygiene certificate can result in a failed inspection. A missing payslip leads to disputes. A lost employee document means a GDPR breach.
Enterprise HR software solves these problems — but it is built for companies with HR departments, not for a corner shop owner managing 8 staff across two sites. The pricing (£5–15 per employee per month), the onboarding process (days or weeks), and the feature set (performance management, succession planning, L&D portals) are all wrong for a small business.
KornerIQ is built differently. It focuses on the compliance and record-keeping tasks that UK small businesses actually need — and nothing else. Flat pricing, instant setup, and features shaped by UK law rather than corporate HR best practice.
Log share code checks, track visa expiries, automatic alerts before any permission expires. Full audit trail per employee.
Secure storage per employee. Missing document flags. Accessible from any device — never stored in a filing cabinet again.
Approve holiday requests, log sick leave, spot absence patterns. No more WhatsApp groups or paper forms.
Track staff training records and certification expiry dates. Get alerted before a certificate lapses — food hygiene, first aid, licences.
Full audit trail, data export, right-to-erasure — built in as standard, not an expensive add-on. ICO-ready documentation.
One view across all your locations. Red/amber/green compliance status per store — know instantly where action is needed.
