UK businesses that trade with Europe are continuing to have a tough time because of post-Brexit bureaucracy, according to an investigation carried out by the Financial Times.
The problems apply to those wanting to work in EU countries as well as those who import and export goods. Russell Antram, the head of EU trade at the CBI said the multiplicity of rules across 27 countries was “a real challenge for the largest of HR departments, let alone small businesses”.
“As the virus restrictions are removed the complexity firms are facing is becoming clearer,” he said. “It is essential the UK and individual EU member states make progress in bilateral talks to ease restrictions.”
