The setting up of a new successful business is a long and complicated process. When you decided to start up your new enterprise the incorporation of the company is the first and the easiest step on the long way to prosperity and success.
Once your company is registered, up and running, there are a lot of issues which new businesses face. Most new entrepreneurs do not have lots of knowledge about the employment and health & safety regulations, but you can believe us that these parts of the legislation are complex and time consuming.
Have you considered how you will deal with complicated issues of employment law, how to issue legal documentation such as contracts, policies and procedures? How will you manage and resolve problems with your employees , or health and safety issues which can affect your business?
There are endless laws and regulations governing the management of Employment Law and Health & Safety issues for all UK based employers. Most businesses are unlikely to have the in-house expertise to deal with these complex issues correctly. For this reason, employers often do not take any action when a problem arises or, possibly even worse, they take the wrong course of action, which can lead to prosecutions and fines that can have a severe financial impact on their business.
A few figures:
The average fine for Health & Safety for 2006/2007 was over £15,000 and the number of offences prosecuted by the HSE for 2006/2007 grew to 1141 from 1056 for the previous year. *
Not only that:
132,377 employment tribunal cases to date in 2007 – an increase of 15% on the previous year. Average solicitor charges approx. £150 per hour and a typical solicitors bill for ET is £4000.
115% increase on the number of total claims accepted at an Employment Tribunal and a 325% increase on the costs awarded, it is apparent that no business can truly afford not to be compliant with Health & Safety or Employment legislation. **
