Basic Business Needs

5 Start-Up Must Haves

There are many things to consider when building up your business but before you look at your profits and wages you may want to consider the basics.

Cleaning and security are both two very important things you will need to consider for your business to thrive. You will also need to consider this as it will apply to the Health and Safety Act. Here is a list of five things we believe every business should consider.

1. Concierge Duties

Concierge duties may be a good idea for your business and this can be cost efficient and cover all of your security needs. This can save you money as a concierge duties officer can double up as a receptionist whilst providing the deterrent of a security officer. This will offer your employees peace of mind and deter everyone looking to cause problems.

2. Keyholding & Alarm activation

You can employ a company to provide the services of key holding which includes passing on the responsibility of looking after the premises' keys. This will reduce the risk of anyone being at fault for losing the keys or getting hurt by an intruder. An alarm activation service employs an officer to respond to the scene when the alarm has been raised. This saves you from the worry and trouble of checking it out yourself and rules out the risks that could occur in this situation.

3. Daily cleaning

A daily cleaning service is advisable as this can massively reduce illness in the office and provide a clean work environment. It also creates a positive first impression to clients, visitors and guests.

4. M & E services

The M & E service provides you with a company that can provide quick and efficient tasks such as changing a light bulb, re-plumbing a toilet or installing new air conditioning. A company that provides an M & E service can be simply called up to fix a multitude of tasks. Otherwise you would spend all day just finding quotes from different companies who can only do one of each of these tasks.

5. Pest control

This is not always a necessity but it is good to bear in mind as it can quickly become a problem. Pest control is often used by companies to keep rat or mouse problems under control as they can cause staff to become ill and can create damage to the building.
