BIS: Significant disparities exist between small businesses in their confidence & awareness of managing employment law, according to new research published by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS).
The government offers free advice & simple online tools on the Employing People section of the Business Link website to help SME’s manage their legal obligations. As an extension of this, BIS launched a new online tool - The Employment Law Organiser – in September 2009 to help SMEs stay up to date on new legislation.
