Premier Foods has launched an online HR management system to streamline its processes for interim employees across 70 sites.

The company behind food brands including Hovis, Mr Kipling, Bisto, Quorn and Branston is working with Alexander Mann Solutions (AMS) to implement a workforce outsourcing system.

The deal will see AMS taking on the management of all Premier Food's contingent workforce across the UK and Ireland. AMS will be establishing a centralised resourcing hub to source and manage contingent workers across all of Premier Foods' 70 locations, covering all major disciplines.

AMS and Premier Foods are currently working through a detailed implementation phase, with operations expected to go live later this month.

Previously, the business's interim workers were managed on a local basis by in-house HR teams and line managers. The AMS service will provide Premier Foods with clear visibility of all contingent resource, streamlined processes and greater compliance and risk mitigation.
