Regardless of your size or development stage, every business owner has to comply with many forms of business regulation, ranging from the obvious like taxation and employment law to the less apparent things such as data protection, health & safety and contractual law. The FSB exists to help business owners to be compliant through advice, support, the documentation needed and even protection for when things do go wrong. So instead of having to deal with separate Solicitors, GDPR, HR and Health & Safety professionals, we do it all for you, and at a fraction of the cost because we have economies of scale and are non-profit making.
