BCC raises employment red tape concerns

The British Chambers of Commerce has raised concerns about the level of employment red tape which is due to be implemented in the UK in the next four years and said this issue needs to be addressed

According to the sector body, the country's sales recruitment organisations and other firms need the freedom and flexibility to create as many jobs as possible during the economic recovery.

Commenting, David Frost, director general of the BCC, said that while firms have heard some "good announcements" from the coalition about reviewing and scrutinising upcoming red tape, businesses are yet to see the benefits.

He said: "The government now has the chance to prove its commitment to reducing the substantial burden of regulation, by putting the brakes on any costly new employment law coming into force during the life of this parliament."

It comes after Steve Huxham, chairman of the Recruitment Society, said that skills consultation is "essential" if the UK is to simplify the skills system and help boost sales recruitment.
