At the Birkenhead Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) there are some fantastic resources that would be very useful to businesses. Our experience shows that businesses can have a number of issues which are either directly related to running the business or are associated with actually being an employer.
From a business perspective the Birkenhead CAB can help with access to good information on the services provided by the Business Mentor programme which is an invaluable resource for businesses to get some advice on how to progress and grow their business. We also have information on how to prepare for and what to expect at the disputes tribunal. It can be very daunting to face a disputes tribunal hearing and these resources can make all the difference.
As an employer particularly in a smaller business it often falls to the employer to assist employees with personal issues. Where one employee is struggling through a personal issue it can affect their work performance and this in turn can affect the function of the business as a whole. However again there is help at hand at the Birkenhead CAB! We have resources to assist people with parenting, separation, parenting through separation, immigration, visa issues and a variety of other personal issues.
We also have resources on how to start a business on the steps and actions that need to be worked through to establish your business.
Consider coming in to see us, no problem is too small or large. We are sure our
free and confidential service can help you!
