The Gym Group - We’ve been working with Peninsula for over 10 years and during that time they have supported in the development of our health and safety management system as well as delivering an annual audit schedule of over 180 sites.
They have an active role within our health and safety steering committee and provide comprehensive reports and analysis which are also confidently presented at Board level stakeholders.

Managing staff is simple with Peninsula
Your staff are your greatest asset. From providing a winning service to keeping your premises spotless, you couldn’t succeed without them.
But when it comes to managing staff in the leisure industry, there are certain employment issues you need to handle. And when you’re so busy looking after your facilities, there’s not always enough time to provide the right HR support.
Here are the most common HR issues in leisure:
- Employment status – whether your staff are classed as employees, workers, or self-employed contractors
- Handling migrant workers’ right to work in the UK
- National minimum wage, particularly when workers sleep during overnight on-call shifts
Instead of handling these issues alone, you can leave it all to the UK’s leading HR experts. Whether we’re supporting you through a redundancy or helping you calculate sick pay, you’ll always enjoy practical and no-nonsense advice.
