    JUST EAT VS UBER EATS

    Are there any food businesses on here who use Uber Eats or Just Eat to reach a wider target audience than footfall alone? I run two cafes. We currently don't offer a delivery option and I do feel this limits our customer base somewhat. Thinking of signing up to Uber or Just Eat but am wary of...

    Best way to play music for business use?

    I am looking into the best way to get the music I want into my two cafes. It is very confusing! Both premises have a PPL/PRS licence, I am aware of the need for that. Cafe 1 currently plays radio through a TV and we have a TV licence Cafe 2 plays old CDs through an old sound system, which...

    Why is nobody talking about energy prices???

    That's terrible! You have my sympathy and I can only second all of your observations. I definitely don't think we are alone in this; I can only presume everyone has given up complaining seeing as it seems to be a losing battle! At the risk of getting political, the only conclusion I can come to...

    Why is nobody talking about energy prices???

    I completely agree! This is exactly how I feel too but I can't understand why nobody else seems to think it is unacceptable! Or if they do, they are keeping it to themselves....

    Why is nobody talking about energy prices???

    I run a small independent cafe with my husband and business partner. Our energy bills are 4x what they were when we opened 3 years ago. That's shocking, but what I don't understand is why the fall in wholesale prices as evidenced by the approx 20% decrease in domestic energy tariffs, are not...

    How to deduct holiday entitlement

    It is the 'agree how many hours that is part' I am struggling with. I do not want to issue contracts with set minimum hours, and nor do my employees want them. How do we 'agree' how many hours a days holiday is? Is there anything considered standard practice for that, anecdotally or legally?

    How to deduct holiday entitlement

    OK, thanks for the prompt response! So, I calculated her entitlement as a WTE of a full time employee who would be entitled to 28 days. She is 0.22 WTE based on her hours, which works out as 6 days per annum, or 49 hours. So are you saying for a day off I should deduct 0.22 of a full working...

    How to deduct holiday entitlement

    Hi, I have recently opened a cafe and we have employed staff. I have spent a good amount of time reading around employment law on most of the official sites (ACAS, .gov.uk etc) and I am happy with how to calculate holiday entitlement and pay for our staff. What I cannot find any information on...
