NHBF launch free self-employment checklists
Online resource available for the hair and beauty sector
by AMANDA | INFORM
The National Hair & Beauty Federation (NHBF) have launched a series of free checklists designed to support self-employed professionals and businesses across the hair and beauty sector.
Stylists and salon owners have increasingly complained of the legal grey area surrounding freelancing and setting up rent-a-chair style collectives. To provide support, the NHBF have created four free and easy-to-use checklists, intended as guidance tools rather than definitive lists:
• For those setting up their own self-employed business
Designed as ‘food for thought’ resources, the checklists have been developed to help identify what’s in place, what may need attention and where to find extra support. “We’re not here to judge. We’re here to support,” said Cathy Weston, NHBF director of quality and standards. “This initiative is part of our ongoing mission to raise standards, support individuals and protect the future of our sector by giving professionals the tools, knowledge and confidence to run their business the right way.”
The checklists are free and open to everyone working in the hair, barbering, beauty and aesthetics sectors. By visiting the NHBF website, you can complete a short questionnaire at the NHBF’s website to receive a tailored summary, followed by further guidance.
