Back in March, the chancellor announced a number changes affecting small businesses, including changes to business rates, NI payments and stamp duty.  The national living wage was introduced in April this year, and updates were also made to employment legislation around the right to complain at a tribunal and employing foreign workers.

What does this mean for your business clients? It means they have to be on top of not only running their business, but also ongoing changes to legislation, such as employment law. It can cost them dearly if they get things wrong!
