Martin is a 56 year old FCA with many years of business experience both as a Partner with a Top 6 firm and a number of positions in industry at FD and MD level. During a period of recent inactivity Martin witnessed at first hand the problems of getting the attention of both agencies and employers when you are over 50. He decided to take positive action - the result is matureaccountants.com.

EU maternity law 'must not result in new costs for UK businesses' The British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) has warned of the potential cost impact of possible EU changes to maternity benefits. Following the amendment of the Pregnant Workers Directive in the European Parliament, Dr Adam Marshall, Director of Policy at the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC), said: "The Pregnant Workers Directive should be about setting minimum EU standards for the health and safety of pregnant workers - not adding new payroll costs for overburdened companies and national social security systems. "This vote introduces complexity and uncertainty, which are totally unnecessary, as the UK and other EU countries already have well-developed national maternity pay systems. "Companies need to be given the space to deliver growth and jobs - without being hamstrung by new and costly maternity rules. "As the Directive moves forward, we urge the European Parliament as a whole and the Council to overturn these costly amendments." ------------ 2010/02/26 ------------- MBI Candidates We are looking for people that are interested in doing an MBI.
