Upcoming Tip Laws Set to Rock Hospitality Sector Further | Forbes Burton 07/06/2024

After a tumultuous few years, the hospitality industry still seems to be lurching from one problem to another.

New legislation will ensure that hospitality staff receive 100% of any tips given. Unfortunately, it seems many UK business owners have been relying on a percentage of such gratuities to run their companies.

In fact, the majority of hospitality companies polled think the change could cost them up to an additional £12,000 a year.

Is the sector set for another crash?

Upcoming Tip Laws Set to Rock Hospitality Sector Further | Forbes Burton A planned new bill set to come into effect in October will see employers unable to take any tips from staff. The legislation change, previously earmarked for July, has been delayed to allow struggling hospitality firms to prepare for it. While this may not seem like an issue that would affect a grea...

Credit scores for businesses are created by many more outlets than a personal profile. This can understandably make it difficult to know which credit rating agency’s score is being used at any particular time. On top of this, each agency has different methods for calculating their scores, resulting in some vastly different ratings seen between agencies for the same company.

Is it important to discover how to improve business credit score ratings?

Photos from Forbes Burton's post 19/04/2024

Thursday afternoon saw Forbes Burton try something a little bit different from the usual networking events. Our team had the pleasure of welcoming our guests to Grimsby’s Fishing Heritage Centre for a treasure trail full of slippery clues and a boatload of prizes!

Four intrepid teams journeyed into the centre armed only with a map and set of clues, but only one emerged victorious. Their teamwork and problem-solving bagged themselves a prize with a combined alcohol content that would make even the saltiest seadog wince!

A great time was had by all, and the unique structure of the afternoon allowed everybody to become acquainted with one another without the forced awkwardness of traditional networking events. Competitive spirits soon rose up, and each of our teams displayed amazing teamwork to solve the clues scattered throughout.

Forbes Burton has built its reputation over the years on approaching problems from different angles, and our latest networking event is testament to that. This was unlike any identikit networking event you may have attended before, creating real connections and providing genuine fun.

We’d like to thank everybody who attended and got straight into the spirit of the hunt! If you didn’t manage to make this one, you’ll have to make sure you don’t miss out on the next event!
