STAFFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND, July 07, 2011 (Press-News.org) Reducing red tape for businesses can only be a good thing, compliance specialist Bibby Consulting & Support has said in response to claims that the government's 'Red Tape Challenge' might actually mean more work for companies as opposed to less.
The Business Secretary, Vince Cable, has revealed that many visitors to the 'Red Tape Challenge' website have called for existing regulations to be maintained or even increased. The suggestion is that fewer regulations could mean diluted rights and protections, particularly in health & safety.
Although he said the site had been "bombarded" by such messages, Cable insisted that one of the government's top priorities was to reduce the amount of regulation that small companies and start-up businesses face. But he warned companies: "Please don't pretend this is easy."
Bibby Consulting & Support understands that many regulations are essential to protect businesses and employees but also supports efforts to minimise the amount of complex legislation that companies have to abide by and which has been generated over the years.
Managing Director Michael Slade says: "Clearly, it is in everybody's interest to have health and safety safeguards within businesses to ensure that all staff members are able to work in a safe environment. This is not in dispute."
"However, it also needs to be recognised that there is a considerable amount of employment law regulation that does nothing to help businesses work at maximum efficiency and to expand as they become more successful. As long as rights are maintained, we consider the time and effort required to cut down on regulation to be a very worthwhile investment.
Unfortunately however recent reports state that the site currently appears to be used more by members of the public and consumer groups who are expressing a one-sided view that existing regulations should be maintained or more worryingly still, increased. We are strongly urging business leaders to add their own views and ensure that their voices are heard."
