Peace of Mind For Your Business

Your people are an asset to your business, but HR issues present a significant threat to your investment – Contract creation takes time and solicitors are expensive.

Conflict in the workplace is time consuming and unproductive, not to mention the stress it places on both parties and if you end up at an Employment Tribunal, you will suffer the costs even if you win. You can even face legal action as early as the initial interview stage.

We provide professional documents, letters, contracts and checklists available to keep you legally compliant and up to date with all aspects of HR

Members also receive a complimentary Perks Directory Card with thousands worth of discounts for Business Owners.

 

Some of the areas we have helped Business Owners:

Reorganise business – Does this involve redundancy?

Concerned about bringing people back from furlough?

Advice with the new points-based immigration system in place from 1st January

Support with the New National Minimum Wage rates that came into force from 1st April 2021

 

When HR issues arise, you want to resolve them quickly. Our service provides an immediate solution with HR Advice Lines available 24/7, 365 days a year

What Our Members Say

Dominic Turnbull, Natcon

“I used the Business First Network as I needed to dismiss a member of staff and wanted to make sure I carried out the dismissal legally and in a professional manner. I am really happy with the support offered to me”

Stephen Boyle, Owner, The Bay Cafe

“As the owner of a busy café in a popular local holiday destination, I have to employ part-time and casual staff. I used the Business First Network to get advice and assistance with employment law and paperwork.”

Robert Oxborough, MBA Managing Director, PCC Office Supplies

“As a relatively new member of Business First Network I am very glad to see their assistance has already made an impact on my business. I have made use of their brilliant legal forms and they have saved my company and myself close to £2,000. The results of having a Business First Network membership are clear. Do not hesitate to become a member; I am very glad I did.”

Kevin McMahon Owner, Group Cleaning Services

“I get a lot of benefit from the Business 2 Business information sent out on a weekly basis, especially the information on tenders. I had been put in touch with Queens University in Belfast through Business First Network and I completed a one-off cleaning job for them. On the back of this I was asked to attend a “Meet the Buyer” event in Belfast. At the event I met the man in charge of the actual maintenance contracts for Queens University, we had a chat and he asked me to submit a tender for the full cleaning contract for Queens University, this would be a substantial contract and would mean a great deal to my company. The only reason this happened is because I am a member of Business First Network.”

Frank Given, Close Focus

“Thank you Business First Network for a great legal advice service. At the start of Christmas weekend I needed quick access to an up to date Mutual Non Disclosure Agreement to engage a new client. The Business Law service, included in my membership, was instantly available, with easy to use online forms to tailor to my client specification, the process took less than 15 minutes. I would highly recommend this service to independent contractors and consultants who need instant access to high quality, professional contract documentation at a very affordable rate. Being a member of Business First Network has many benefits for my company and I am happy to recommend BFN to any business owner who sees the value in a strong support network.”

Suzanne Clough, SW Concrete Repairs

“We have been a member of Business First Network for a while and registered with their Free Auto- Enrolment solution. I found this scheme easy to use, all the representatives were very helpful and answered any questions I had. We were able to get the scheme up and running with no problems at all. Thank you Business First Network!”
