Two associate members of the British Security Industry Association are offering advice on employment law, health and safety and taxation at a free event at Windsor Racecourse on Tuesday, September 9.
Jointly organised by employment law firm Citation, and tax advice firm Cobia Ltd, the BSIA’s event aims to share best practice to small and medium businesses on such issues as employment law, tax planning and health and safety.
From dismissing poor performers without risk of tribunal claims, to enhancing a business’ operating margin by around 3pc, Cobia and Citation’s staff will be on hand to provide delegates with the basics they need to improve their company’s health, safety and legal compliance processes.
Daren Wood, Membership Manager at the BSIA, says: “Many small businesses simply don’t have the knowledge or resource in-house to dedicate to optimising taxation, health and safety and legal compliance. As such, the advice of independent experts such as Cobia and Citation can prove vital to helping small businesses to thrive.”
Formatted as a breakfast briefing, the seminar is set to run from 8:30am until 10:30am, and is at a venue within easy reach of the South East’s motorways.
James Doyle, of Cobia Ltd, adds: “Cobia will inform delegates of the latest opportunities to plan their employment taxes in an efficient manner, as well as covering general practice across the security industry and the benefits available to their businesses. Cobia has vast experience of working across the security industry in payroll, pensions and employment tax planning. Cobia’s clients include OCS Group, Initial Facilities, Kingdom, as well at least 50 SME organisations. Cobia also works closely with the SIA to help deliver best practice specifically on matters of employment status.”
Introducing Citation’s offering, Nigel Lea said: “Citation have had clients within the security sector since our inception in 1995 and have worked with the BSIA for a number of years now, helping their members with the highly regulated areas of health and safety and employment law. Getting these areas wrong can prove costly and really damage a business, but getting it right can increase efficiency, help you win business and improve your bottom line. This is why we are delighted to be involved with this event as it gives BSIA members a chance to see how our sector specific services can not only help their own business, but also how the BSIA is committed to putting the best member benefits possible in front of them.”
The event is open to all businesses working within the security sector – including non-members of the BSIA . Anyone wishing to attend can register by visiting: www.citation.co.uk/seminars/bsia.
