How we do research

  1. Stated method

    Every study opens with what was measured, over what period, and how the sample was drawn. If a figure cannot be sourced, it is not published.

  2. Attributable sources

    Third-party data is linked to its origin in the body of the piece, and every claim carries the date it was made.

  3. Separated from commercial work

    Sponsored content is labelled as sponsored at the top of the page. Research is never commissioned by a vendor covered in it. See how we work.

  4. Not legal, employment or procurement advice

    Our coverage of vendors, products and workplace regulation is journalism. Nothing here is legal, employment or procurement advice - see the full statement.

What we commission

Pitch an idea
  • 01The system review

    One platform assessed against the HR workflow it serves, including what it does to the employee experience.

  • 02The category map

    Who competes in a category, how the models differ, which organisation size each suits.

  • 03The governance explainer

    A regulation or risk area explained plainly, with the practical implications for HR systems. Strong evergreen traffic.

  • 04The workforce study

    Original research from our audience or a structured survey. The flagship format and lead magnet.

  • 05The funding and moves brief

    Rounds, acquisitions and HR leadership changes, with the reader implication stated first.
