Winter Disruption

05 January 2010

Snow Ice and freezing temperatures have caused problems accross the industry in Dec and January with forecasters predicting more to follow in what could welll become our coldest winter since 1981.

Whilst the white stuff is very pretty on the eye, it is very costly to small businesses, especially during hard times with competive pricing. With most employers in construction having to employ PAYE staff because of changes in regulations, having downed tools due to the freeze is not welcome. Spring can't come soon enough.
