Interim Cover
Parental leave entitlements were reviewed this year and finding appropriate and cost effective cover is getting even more difficult for many employers with additional liabilities, scheduling issues and claims, not to mention the possibility of the new parent not returning to work. For professional paternity and sickness cover, or specialist project work, speak to us about your interim management needs and we will shortlist suitable candidates with relevant industry experience. All charity clients get 15% rebated back. We know that with the extra 2.5% to HMRC in VAT this year, charities are probably the hardest hit as they are not always able to claim back VAT on purchases. |
