In April 2020, the Good Work Plan, which is the “biggest overhaul of employment law in 20years” was implemented.  HR Manager, Bal Dhesi takes us through the key elements that have changed this year and what actions employers should take for their workplaces.

Find out what you need to do with your employment contracts, how to calculate holiday pay for employees and other forms of workers and what to be mindful of when working with recruitment agencies.

Mark Saunders and Prashant Malde joined up with Westminster Business Council on Tuesday 13 October for our third webinar session.

Mark’s honest observations look at what you should assess to make your business more resilient during the pandemic. He will cover what you should be focusing on right now and whether moving forward will be your ‘new normal or a fresh start.’

We take the opportunity to provide an update on the latest Government’s support measures and look at how these could help your business over the next few months. Prashant gives his thoughts on what business owners should be planning for before the Budget in spring 2021 and considers the alternative options that may be available.

HR Manager, Bal Dhesi is back again with more great advice and guidance to help employers support and manage their furloughed staff back to the workplace.

Having previously advised us on the best ways to work from home, this time we learn why it’s important to keep accurate recording whilst utilising the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, how to communicate with both furloughed and non-furlough team members as well as what challenges to watch out for.

You can also learn what the government’s actions are for ‘flexible furlough’ as well as why it’s important to focus on the health of your employees and your business.

We were delighted to be invited back for a subsequent webinar with the Westminster Business Council on May 20th. It was an excellent opportunity to deliver an update on the different schemes and options available to businesses since our first webinar together, back in April.

Chris gave a quick round-up on the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme and our experiences of the portal so far, as well as comparing the Bounce Back Loan scheme and the Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme.

Prashant gave members an insightful view of further funding options available for businesses, such as the Future Fund, Innovate UK grants and the Local Authority Discretionary Grant Fund.

Both Chris and Prashant answered some questions live during the webinar, but if you have any questions that weren’t covered in the session then please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

We were delighted to be invited to chat during their breakfast show on Tuesday 5th May. Robert Bradman, Partner and Head of Accounting Support, joined Bee Phillips live on air to discuss his love for tennis, spending time with his family during the UK lockdown and how our team supports growing local businesses.

We will be joining the Breakfast Show regularly for a chat, so don’t forget to tune in on Tuesdays mornings between 7 -10am to listen to their show
