HR Consulting
Clear answers to your questions about labor law and team management
What does HR consulting cover?
HR consulting covers all strategic and operational aspects of human resources management — from interpreting labor legislation and developing internal HR policies, to optimizing organizational structure, implementing performance management systems, and supporting hiring and dismissal procedures.
Whether you need a point answer to a concrete situation — how to apply a disciplinary sanction, how to restructure a department, or how to negotiate with an employee — or a larger HR reorganization project, we provide practical expertise and solutions adapted to the realities of the Republic of Moldova.

Why does specialized HR consulting matter?
Labor legislation in the Republic of Moldova — the Labor Code, salary laws, ISM regulations — is detailed and changes periodically. A decision made without precise knowledge of the law can cost your company far more than a consulting fee: fines, disputes, compensation, damaged reputation.
An experienced HR consultant does not just tell you what the law says — they explain how it applies to your specific situation, what options you have, what the risks of each option are, and which solution is most appropriate for your company. This is the difference between reading a legal article and understanding what it means in practice.

Consulting areas
Labor law
We provide consulting on any aspect of labor legislation in the Republic of Moldova — interpretation of the Labor Code, employer and employee rights and obligations, recent legislative changes, application of collective labor agreement provisions and internal regulations. We respond quickly to the practical questions you face daily.
HR policies and procedures
We develop and implement HR policies tailored to your company — recruitment and selection policy, remuneration and benefits policy, performance evaluation policy, training and development policy, disciplinary procedures. Clear and consistently applied policies reduce arbitrariness, increase employee satisfaction, and protect the company during inspections or disputes.
Organizational structure
We analyze your company's organizational structure and identify optimization opportunities — reducing responsibility overlaps, clarifying reporting lines, balancing workload between departments. We support reorganization or restructuring processes, ensuring they are managed legally and with minimal impact on the team.
Performance management
We implement performance evaluation systems adapted to the size and specifics of your company — individual objectives, performance indicators, evaluation cycles, structured feedback. A good performance management system motivates the team, identifies problems early, and provides a documented basis for promotion, remuneration, or dismissal decisions.
Hiring procedures
We advise on the recruitment and selection process — what criteria you can legally use, how to structure the interview, what questions are permitted and which are discriminatory, how to check references. We help you build an effective onboarding process that quickly integrates new employees and reduces staff turnover in the first months.
HR audit
We conduct comprehensive HR audits — checking personnel documentation, applied procedures, compliance with labor legislation, and identifying risk areas. The audit report gives you a clear picture of your company's current HR state and a prioritized action plan to address identified issues.
Frequently Asked Questions
HR consulting can take several forms depending on your need. Point consulting means you contact us when you have a specific question or concrete situation to resolve — a problematic employee, a restructuring, a negotiation. We analyze the situation, explain the options, and help you make the right decision.
Project consulting means we work together on a defined project — developing HR policies, implementing an evaluation system, reorganizing a department. We establish objectives, timelines, and deliverables from the start, so you know exactly what you will receive and when.
Retainer consulting means you have continuous access to HR expertise — answers to current questions, document review, participation in HR meetings, ongoing updates on legislative changes. Many clients prefer this format because they have expert HR support without the cost of a full-time HR employee.
Yes, drafting internal regulations is one of the most requested HR consulting services. The internal regulations document establishes the rules for organizing and running the company — work schedule, employee rights and obligations, conduct standards, disciplinary procedure, personal data protection policy, and other aspects.
Well-drafted internal regulations are an essential management tool — they clarify expectations, reduce conflicts, and provide a clear legal basis for disciplinary decisions. We draft regulations starting from the specifics of your activity, complying with all legal requirements and ensuring they are practically applicable.
Internal regulations must be brought to the attention of each employee and must be updated whenever legislation or company practices change. We also manage these updates, so your internal regulations are always current and applicable.
Labor conflicts can be individual — between employee and employer — or collective — between the team or trade union and the employer. The approach depends on the type of conflict, severity, and the stage it is at.
In the early stage, the most important thing is documentation — any communication, any warning, any relevant discussion must be put in writing. Our HR consulting at this stage focuses on understanding the situation, identifying legal options, and choosing the approach that minimizes the risk of escalation or litigation.
If a dispute reaches court, complete documentation and correctly applied procedures are the employer's only real protection. Companies that correctly manage conflicts from the start — with proper HR consulting — have a significantly lower rate of lost cases and compensation awarded to employees.
Performance management is the process by which a company sets expectations for each employee, systematically measures results, and provides structured feedback for continuous improvement. A well-implemented performance management system transforms a collection of people into a team working toward common goals.
Concretely, this means: clear and measurable individual objectives (SMART), periodic evaluations — quarterly or annual —, structured feedback conversations, individual development plans, and linking performance to remuneration or advancement opportunities.
Beyond motivational benefits, performance management also provides legal protection. If you need to make the difficult decision to dismiss an employee for professional incompetence, documented evaluations are the evidence supporting your decision in a potential dispute. Without documentation, a dismissal for poor performance is nearly impossible to legally sustain.
Confidentiality is fundamental in any HR consulting service. We access sensitive data about your employees and company structure, and we explicitly commit to not disclosing this to third parties and using it solely for the purpose of providing services.
All HR consulting relationships are governed by a confidentiality agreement, included in the service contract or signed separately. Employee personal data is processed in accordance with GDPR and national personal data protection legislation, with appropriate technical and organizational measures.
At the end of the consulting engagement, we inform you about the data we hold and, upon request, delete it or transfer it to you. We never use your company's information for the benefit of other clients or for our own purposes.
Yes, we work with companies that have employees in multiple cities or locations across the Republic of Moldova. Specifics may vary — work schedule, working conditions, required equipment — but the legal framework is uniform at the national level.
We manage documentation centrally, with the necessary adaptations per location. For example, if one location works in shifts and another has a standard schedule, contracts, job descriptions, and internal regulations will reflect these differences. ISM reporting is done per location separately where applicable.
Communication with you is conducted online — by email, video conference, or collaboration platforms — so geographical location does not affect the quality or promptness of our services. Clients from Chisinau, Balti, Orhei, or other localities receive the same level of service.
An HR audit is a systematic examination of all HR processes, documents, and practices in your company, benchmarked against legal requirements and industry best practices. A well-conducted audit gives you a complete and objective picture of your company's HR state.
We verify: completeness and accuracy of personnel files, compliance of employment contracts with legislation, correctness of ISM and SFS reporting, leave and working time management, disciplinary procedures applied, existing HR policies and their degree of implementation.
The audit result is a report that identifies non-compliances, estimates associated risks, and proposes a prioritized remediation plan. Many clients conduct an HR audit before an anticipated ISM inspection, or when acquiring a company and wanting to know what HR problems they are inheriting.
Point HR consulting — specific questions, analysis of concrete situations — is billed hourly or per project, depending on complexity and estimated time. A response to a simple labor law question may be included in the HR administration retainer, if you are already a client.
HR consulting projects — policy development, evaluation system implementation, HR audit — are quoted per project after an initial discussion where we establish scope, deliverables, and timelines. The price reflects complexity and estimated workload.
The consulting retainer provides continuous access to our services for a fixed monthly fee. This is the most effective solution for companies that frequently have HR questions or situations to resolve. Contact us for a free initial discussion and a personalized proposal.
