CBI backs Britain as 'the place to work'

Job creation and making Britain an attractive place to work is absolutely crucial if the UK is to continue recovering from the affects of the recession.

That is the stance of the CBI, which released a set of measures that it believes could help to make Britain the place to be for companies searching for a base.

John Cridland, CBI deputy director-general, said that the UK should be embracing more flexible working, blocking regulations that will cost sales jobs and changing industrial relations legislation in order to stimulate the economy.

"As we enter a period of fragile recovery, we need to do everything we can to create a jobs market that works for Britain, and to ensure Britain is the place to work. To position the UK for growth, any new employment legislation must pass a simple test of whether it will encourage job creation," he added.

Ian McCafferty, CBI chief economic adviser, recently said that UK inflation has passed its peak point and in line with the organisation's latest economic forecast.
