Are silk ties making a comeback?

By

Truth is, silk ties never really fell out of popularity. They are a firm favourite for any professional, as well as others who wish to elevate their look. Read on to see why adults and kids silk ties are the smart and stylish choice.

Loved by royalty

Historically, neckties have been a symbol of honour, nobility, and order. It is believed that Croatian mercenaries were the first adopters of a knotted neckerchief while serving in France. It is hardly surprising that the boy-king Louis XIV of France, who had the strictest dress etiquette of any royal court in Europe, admired them so much he made neckties a mandatory accessory for royal gatherings. This was around 1646 when King Louis was just seven years old. These style symbols became known as “La Cravate” the translation of necktie in French to this day.

Twenties trends

Although these early ties were not the same as those we know today, by the end of the 1910s there was little difference in the design. There was, however, a shift in wearing trends, as ties were not just restricted to highly formal settings but appeared at more casual events too. As ties became an item of everyday fashion a stronger emphasis was placed on comfort, functionality, and fit. Silk was an ideal fabric choice as it had a luxurious feel but would not keep any of the creases after being tied for a long time. The 1920s saw the rising popularity of patterned silk neckties. These ranged from classic stripes to experimental colour combinations such as mauve, lime and mustard. It was soon seen as the young man’s fashion must-have.

Look good, feel good

Reasons for wearing ties have not changed much in the past century, although it is much more common for women to wear them too nowadays. This starts from an early age, as in schools you will see the uniform for both sexes featuring them. One of the most notable occasions for wearing a tie is a wedding. From the smallest page boy to the groom himself, it is almost a certainty you will see some style of necktie. Silk ties continue to be a popular choice as the many patterns and prints available reflect an individual’s style while giving their outfit a sharp and polished edge. Ties can also work alongside a person’s silhouette – for example, a slimmer width would look more proportional with a slimmer chest. This gives the wearer an increased level of confidence as ties have become associated with influence, so therefore it is more likely that someone wearing a tie will be viewed as important or a natural leader.

Status symbols

Ties are synonymous with professionalism. They are one of the simplest ways of showing the boss, as well as new clients, that this is someone who takes pride in how they look and what they do. Regardless of whether the workplace is casual or follows a strict dress code, a tie will never fail to enhance an individual’s presentation. Businesses looking to be recognised as reliable and professional by their customers and the public often incorporate ties into their uniform. The most notable examples are pilots, those who are customer facing within banks and the police and army.

To suit everyone

While silk ties are an obvious choice, that is not to say it is the only one. The eco-conscious amongst us will be happy to know that ties are an area of fashion that has sustainability firmly in mind. Not only are vintage ties in high demand, but companies are constantly exploring the benefits of recycled fabrics. This can vary from repurposing a larger piece of fabric into a tie to give it a new lease of life or using something completely unexpected such as plastic bottles. The manufacturing of ties is becoming more environmentally friendly too, with solar-powered mills now a possibility.

The extra mile

Measuring between 50 and 60 inches on average, ties are relatively small pieces of fabric, but they make such a big impact. They are worn by anyone who wants to appear professional and well-dressed or for special occasions, such as weddings.

The COVID-19 pandemic shows no signs of slowing down around the world. In the wake of protests in Australia’s major cities, health professionals are worried about a second wave and it’s important to take the necessary steps to protect clients’ homes. Fortunately, there are some effective steps that we can all take to slow the transmission of Coronavirus. Being stuck at home may seem like the perfect time to spring clean. In fact, it is crucial that your clients maintain the cleanliness of their homes.

However many people do not have the time, commitment and know-how to maintain a clean and germ-free home. This is where professional cleaners can step in. Even professional cleaners need a refresher every now and then to keep themselves updated on the best cleaning practices. Keep reading to find out what deep cleaning entails and what steps you need to take to ensure the health of your client’s household.

The Real Meaning of Deep-Cleaning

To make sure a house is pathogen free you will need to clean every nook and cranny. This is why many essential service businesses are proudly declaring their premises undergo regular deep cleaning. Many domestic households are also opting to engage the services of professional cleaners. Residents might be elderly, immuno-compromised or simply concerned about the health and safety of themselves and their families. However, to remain competitive amongst the multiple professional cleaners now offering this service you will need to do a thorough job.

Deep cleaning goes above and beyond wiping down kitchen counter tops and giving the floor a quick vacuum. Professional cleaning practices that used to be the standard do not cut it anymore. In these uncertain times, health and safety are paramount and you simply cannot afford to cut any corners. If you do innocent people may wind up ill.

A proper deep clean will remove all pathogens and allergens from the household. These include dust mites and toxic mould that can cause respiratory issues, germs and viruses. Deep cleaning means removing scum from the shower head, disinfecting bathrooms with bleach, wiping doorknobs, drawer handles and light switches with Glen-20 and laundering curtains and soft furnishings.

Think of deep cleaning as a regular cleaning session on steroids. Each one of us will have our own preferred techniques and style but in a nutshell, deep cleaning requires you to clean out and disinfect every possible surface in the house, office or premises.

Some people choose to tackle the task alone. Understandably, deep cleaning sounds too daunting to many people. Some simply don’t have the time and that’s where professional cleaners can really step in. Just be sure to remind your clients to maintain the cleanliness of their house afterwards. This will ensure that they continue to enjoy all the health benefits that go along with a professionally cleaned household.

It also means that you can focus on deep cleaning instead of general tidying in subsequent visits. This will give your customer the most bang for their buck. Happy customers mean great reviews and referrals. This in turn will boost your business.

You are probably very busy during this pandemic and it’s important to protect your business. Public Liability insurance is key to protecting cleaners and their businesses from risk. To ensure the health of your own business, head to Public Liability Australia to generate hassle free quote for your business. All you have to do is answer a few short questions and you’ll have your policy in your inbox in minutes.

The Evolution of the Wheel

By
Emily Bennet

The humble wheel plays an indispensable part in our daily lives. It is considered almost mundane because we take it for granted. We find wheels everywhere, cars, lorries, toys, in factories and at home on television and games such as Live Dream Catcher Evolution at Regal Wins. We are surrounded by wheels and most of the time we do not even notice. 

As you can imagine, the evolution of the wheel has taken place over thousands of years. After lots of trial and error, and many false dawns, the vision and design evolved into the wheel as we know it. The roots of the wheel are argued by many to lie within nature itself. When the early man looked around him, it must have been hard to draw inspiration for the wheel, as the idea does not have a place in nature. 

Professor of Biology and Anatomy Michael LaBarbera wrote in 1983, “only bacterial flagella, dung beetles and tumbleweeds come close. And even they are “wheeled organisms” in the loosest use of the term, since they use rolling as a form of locomotion”. So, where does the wheel come from? 

Well, there are a few theories as to where the wheel comes from and they vary. But the truth is, on one is 100% sure where it all started. Any evidence spans the globe, from Asia, Eurasia, and Europe. One theory suggests that the wheel was used as potters’ wheels to make pots for carrying water, cooking, and storing food in Mesopotamia around 3,500 B.C.  

Over the years, more and more evidence has emerged to suggest that the wheel appeared in places such as Poland, Ukraine – the word wheel even comes from the Ukrainian language. We also discovered that the wheelbarrow came from ancient Greece before for making its way to China and then made an appearance in Europe around the medieval period. Wheels even turned up in Mexico well before the Europeans turned up.

Over the last couple of millennia, the wheel developed into something that became a pillar of what has helped build civilisations. It has reached into every aspect of the rise of the modern world. It has helped make lives easier. This reaches into areas such as health, construction, mechanics, and more. It has had a great influence on machinery, agriculture, and farming which is vital to maintaining the world’s populations. 

Wheels are even involved in entertainment – think Ferris Wheels! The wheel was used to lift water out of rivers and streams in mills. This was until some bright spark noticed children playing on the buckets and taking a ride on them.  Thus, the Ferris Wheel was born. In 1893, George Washington Gale Ferris came up with the first Ferris wheel and the rest they say is history! 

Do we even take the time to stop and think about the origins of the wheel? Ask ourselves who first thought of where this revolutionary piece of technology? There are many stories about how the wheel came about. One thing is for sure, it is one of the most important inventions known to man. It’s not possible to nail down its real origin, but it seems that it is a combination of man’s ingenuity and development over time.

4 of the best companies to work for in France

With shorter working hours and generous paid holidays, there are a range of reasons why the working culture in France is respected worldwide. The country is also home to many of the world’s biggest brands, spanning a variety of sectors, which means that there are plenty of opportunities, no matter which industry you work in. So, if you’re considering joining the French workforce, take a look at the following companies which are all leading the way in terms of employee satisfaction.

1. SAP

SAP may not be headquartered in France, but the German software company has proven immensely popular with its French staff. Specialising in enterprise software to improve the management of business operations and customer relations, the development of this technology has also resulted in plenty of job opportunities in SAP across a huge range of industries across France.

According to employee feedback left on Glassdoor, SAP is one of the best places to work in France in 2020. One senior consultant at the company wrote that “everything is done to ensure your wellbeing in the business: events, wellbeing workshops, a relaxation room [as well as] attractive pay.” SAP also ranked sixth on the World’s Best Workplaces 2019 survey by Great Place to Work, with 92% of staff saying they would be proud to tell others they work there.

2. L’Oréal

L’Oréal is one of the world’s most famous and successful beauty businesses. As well as the L’Oréal Paris label, the L’Oréal Group also counts top brands including Lancôme, Maybelline and Garnier among its subsidiaries.

In 2018 the company was voted the second most attractive French employer by LinkedIn, based on metrics including how non-employees engage with the company, job interest and retention. Jean-Claude Le Grand, the company’s senior VP talent development and chief diversity officer, believes that L’Oréal is so popular with its team because of what he calls its “unique DNA: our passion for beauty, our culture of innovation and our entrepreneurial spirit,”.

L’Oréal also recently demonstrated its loyalty to its employees by announcing it would not lay off any staff in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, and would continue to pay the full salaries of all 13,400 employees across France.

3. Saint-Gobain

Saint-Gobain is a French multinational corporation in the building materials industry, creating designs and products for the construction, transport, and healthcare sectors, amongst others. The business takes particular pride in its innovation, noting that one in four of its products did not exist five years ago.

Saint Gobain was the highest-rated French company in Forbes’ World’s Best Employers 2019, which is based on 1.4 million employment recommendations. More recently, it was also awarded Top Employers France 2020 certification, in addition to top European and global status. Comprehensive research undertaken by the Top Employers Institute revealed that Saint-Gobain “provides exceptional employee conditions, nurtures and develops talent throughout all levels of the organisation and has demonstrated its leadership status in the HR environment.”

4. BNP Paribas

The French international banking group is the eighth largest in the world by total assets, and a leading bank in the Eurozone. It defines its mission as: “[contributing] to [a] responsible and sustainable economy by financing and advising clients according to the highest ethical standards”.

BNP Paribas topped LinkedIn’s list of ‘Top Companies’ in France 2019, shooting up six places since the previous year. This was calculated according to the attractiveness of the company, its interactions with employees, the interest in published job offers, and talent retention. Elsewhere, the business won the ‘best use of benefits technology’ award at the Employee Benefits Awards 2019, recognising its utilisation and adaptation of technology to achieve effective strategies for employee engagement, recognition or reward.

Simple ways to create an organised office space

By

If your job requires you to work in an office, then the chances are you’re surrounded by your colleagues and all have your own individual work space. Environments like these present many advantages, such as good team communication and atmosphere, but working in an office can come with its downsides.

For any of you who work in an office, you’ll know how easy and quickly the space around you can become rather cluttered and unorganised. Not only can this present an untidy appearance when people visit your place of work, it can also affect your productivity and present potential hazards which could cause harm to both you and your colleagues.

In order to keep an organised office space, it’s important that each individual does their bit to help maintain a tidy place of work for all. If you feel like your work space could do with a declutter and a more organised appearance, then hopefully the below points will come in useful to you.

Think about storage

The key to creating an organised work space is to think about the different forms of storage you could use. Many offices will often have copious amounts of important documents and folders which can take up large amounts of space. If this is the case for you and you find yourself with documents which are important but you don’t need close by, then it may be worth investing in some archive boxes or other forms of storage. By doing this you can keep your documents in a safe and organised place for when you need to access them at a later date.

Go paperless where possible

Storage is a great place to start but it’s unlikely your place of work will have large amounts of space for the amount of documents you and your colleagues will need. With this in mind, it’s important to try and go paperless where possible. Desks and surrounding areas can often consist of paperwork that could easily be stored on your computer, for example, using Google Drive. Switching from physical documents to those online, means you can save space and you’ll find it easier to access and share documents with your colleagues.

By following steps like those mentioned above and more, you can play your part in creating a more organised place of work. Not only will this help boost your productivity, it will also reduce any hazardous risks around you and create a more professional appearance for anyone visiting your office.

Understanding UK Work Visas – First Step For Working In The UK

By
Claire James

If you are thinking about making the move to the UK there are plenty of parameters to check out. The first, and probably most important, thing to look for is a working visa. With the UK in an uncertain position right now, due to the travel restrictions and various global lockdowns as well as the pending implications of Brexit, there are still measures you can look into to begin preparations to relocate.

In the past few years, the UK government has tweaked the criteria of migrants looking to find work from outside the EU. ‘Managed migration’ has become quite a contested topic, with salary thresholds and language qualifications being the two greatest challenges facing non-EU workers from gaining access to the UK with a work visa.

If you are an EU citizen, you have the freedom to travel and work legally in the UK until the end of 2020 when the Brexit deal is set to go through. Of course, the current global climate is very much up in the air right now when it comes to foreign travel, and depending on how the rest of the year plays out we might see an extension or changes to the Brexit deal.

What Is A Skilled Worker?

The term ‘skilled worker’ can be a little confusing in and of itself. Essentially, a skilled worker visa for the UK encompasses people working as:

  • Academics and researchers;
  • Scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and technology experts;
  • Doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals;
  • Any other market sector with a skill shortage at the time of your application.

If you’re looking to set up in the UK as a self-employed skilled worker, you’ll either need to have at least 50,000 GBP in investments or a fantastic startup pitch that shows plenty of scope for growth and innovation.

How Can You Qualify For A UK Skilled Worker Visa?

The most common way of gaining a UK visa is by going through the Tier 2 (General) visa application process. To qualify for a UK skilled worker visa you must be earning a salary of 30,000 GBP. You have to have an employer in the UK who can approve this salary and help you gain access to the country. Your General visa lasts for up to six years and will cover you as long as you are in employment with the organization that approved your work permit.

The Tier 2 General visa is the only long-term work visa offered in the UK. For anyone who is interested in the possibility of transferring to the UK via their current employer, a Tier 2 intra-company transfer visa is available, saving you the trouble of finding a suitable employer in the UK before moving.

As we’ve mentioned earlier, EU citizens right now are not in need of a skilled worker visa. However, come January 2021 (as things stand), the UK leaves the EU and the requirement of a skilled worker visa will stretch to EU citizens. So what do you need to demonstrate prior to your application being approved?

  • Sufficient understanding of the English language;
  • Ten years of a clean criminal record;
  • A sponsorship and job offer from a licensed UK employer;
  • Able to provide the required savings and salary thresholds.

What If I Can’t Apply For A Skilled Worker Visa?

Currently, workers classed as non-skilled from outside the EU are not eligible for work within the UK. This is because low-skilled jobs are reserved for UK/EU citizens. With the impending Brexit deal these circumstances are potentially subject to change, so I would keep an eye on this situation as it develops into early 2021. You may find the job pool opens up to include or even prioritize non-EU citizens depending on your region.

How Much Does A UK Visa Cost?

Currently, it will cost £610 to apply for a Tier 2 General visa, and a further £610 per person for any family dependants. You can check out the UK government’s website at gov.uk for any potential changes or exceptions, as well as the prices of all other visas. Cost depends largely on the quality and length of the visa, so each one is different.

How Do I Apply For My UK Visa?

You should have a UK visa application center nearby where you can submit your application. A full list of the worldwide application centers can be found by visiting gov.uk. Just like the costs of each visa is different, the documents you need to show change on a tier to tier and even visa to visa basis. If you’re looking for a Tier 2 General visa for skilled workers you will need to provide:

  • Passport or travel ID;
  • Bank statements or a statement of financial security from your employer sponsor;
  • Proof of your English language ability;
  • Confirmation of your payment of the healthcare charge.

With the UK in an interesting position heading towards 2021 in terms of its position in the EU as well as the lasting after-effects of COVID-19, there might never have been a better time to take the plunge and make the move to work and live in the United Kingdom. If you are a skilled worker you have an excellent chance to take advantage of any job offers from UK employers. Once you have the sponsorship of a licensed company, getting a skilled worker visa is simple enough, provided you have the relevant documents and get all your permit applications sent off with plenty of time.

There are other things to consider when you land in the UK, like housing and registering your visa with the police service, and all this information and more can be found by visiting the gov.uk site. It is the home of all things government-related for the UK. Any updates or changes to migrant status can be found there. You can currently apply for full UK citizenship once you have resided there for five years. Finally, I wish you luck in your new challenge!

What does the carbon footprint of 6 UK cities actually look like?

By
Claire James

Over recent years there has been a global surge in trying to reduce the carbon footprints of businesses, cities and individuals alike. People across the world are making numerous changes to their everyday lifestyle, to try and improve the environment and the way we live. With the current health pandemic happening across the world, it has seen a significant reduction in the amount of carbon emissions being emitted across the globe; with a huge part of this being down to fewer vehicles on the roads and minimal numbers of planes in the sky.

Prior to the pandemic though, many cities across the UK and further afield were being criticised for the amount of carbon emissions they were producing on a daily basis. To put this into perspective, Utility Bidder conducted a study which looked in depth at the carbon emissions of six UK cities in 2017. Some of the cities featured within the study include London, Belfast and Glasgow, all of which can be looked at in more detail below.

London

As the capital of England and one of the most popular cities across the world, it comes as no surprise that London was at the higher end of the scale for the amount of carbon emissions the city produces on a daily basis. The study reports that during 2017, London produced a staggering 81,394 tonnes of carbon emissions. To put this into perspective, that weight alone is enough to fill a 354m tall cube, which is taller than the majestic Shard building at 310m tall.

Belfast

The Irish city of Belfast is popular amongst locals and tourists alike, but surprisingly, the amount of carbon emissions the city produces is at the lower end of the scale. During the year the carbon emissions were recorded, Belfast only produced 4,198 tonnes, which is considerably lower than London. 4,198 tonnes would be enough to fill a 132m tall cube, compared to the famous Titanic Belfast which is 38m tall.

Glasgow

In comparison to London, the Scottish city of Glasgow also has a relatively low number of daily carbon emissions it produces. It was reported that during 2017, the city produced around 7,175 tonnes of emissions each day, enough to fill a 157m tall cube. To understand the scale of this, Glasgow Tower is the tallest building in Scotland and stands at around 127m tall. We’ve only outlined three of the six cities mentioned in Utility Bidder’s study, but when comparing the amount of carbon emissions the cities produce against their famous buildings and landmarks, you can start to understand the true scale of the issue.

Ways to Protect Your Business When Providing Advice Online

By

If you provide a professional service, your knowledge is likely what you sell. But what happens if your advice isn’t correct? Consequences are a sure thing for every mistake made.

There are a lot of factors that will go into how badly this bad advice will affect your businesses. Sometimes these disputes can be solved with an apology, and other legal action will be required.

So, how can you protect your businesses when these matters arise? Read on to find out.

Have A Disclaimer

Let it be clearly stated on your website through the use of a disclaimer, your communications and on any contracts that consumers and clients are totally responsible for the decision they make based on any advice, financial or otherwise, provided on them by your business. This is sometimes enough to help your case when claims are made because while you can provide advice to

Usually, these stop any legal action from coming against you as you have made it very clear that you are providing advice only, not forcing anyone to take action base o that advice.

Legal battles

Mistakes are inevitable. Some are minor, and others can have damaging repercussions. If your business faces negligence claims, the costs can be financially damning, and a costly lawsuit could result. This is where professional indemnity insurance can play a vital role in your business. It is crucial if you have a business that requires providing advice that you have a professional indemnity policy for your business, and the cost of any legal suit will be covered.

Public Relations

Of course, just because you win a legal battle doesn’t mean you’re going to win in the public opinion court. If your good name is dragged in the courts – and then through the media – there is a chance that your current and potential clients will know about it.

So how are you protecting your business? Are you looking to fight the case and clearing your name? Or are you looking to settle early, reduce exposure, but appear guilty to outsiders?

A good PR team will be able to help you repair your brand’s reputation following a legal crisis and help you maintain your customer’s favour or regain any lost trust in your company.

Regulatory Intervention

Of course, just because your business has survived before the courts and the subsequent reputational fallout does not mean that you are guaranteed to continue in your chosen field of work. You may now be subject to review by the relevant industry authorities or regulators, so it is important that you are also prepared for that.

So how are you protecting yourself from this?

Again, having an experienced legal team to fight for you can help. Usually, the only way you protect yourself from all the consequences in the courts is having a strong legal team and an ironclad professional indemnity insurance policy top back you up.

With so much at stake, it’s essential that you ensure your business is protected against the dangers associated with the sale of your knowledge.
