What key laws will apply to my education or training business?

Like many other businesses, there are specific regulations that will apply to your education or training business. For instance, it's worth familiarising yourself with the UK Consumer Rights Act which regulates the way you represent your services to clients and customers. This law protects the interests of customers in light of unfair business practices.

Furthermore, you also need to comply with your employer obligations, such as those under the Employment Rights Act. This includes ensuring your employees are paid correctly (for example, in accordance with their contract of employment or National Minimum Wage) and maintaining a safe workplace in line with Health and Safety Executive's requirements.
