BAGMA partnership with WorkNest provides HR and legal compliance support to members

The British Agricultural and Garden Machinery Association (BAGMA) has announced its partnership with employment law and HR specialists WorkNest, offering continued added benefits to BAGMA members to support, protect and grow their businesses.

BAGMA is the leading membership association for independent agricultural, garden and groundcare machinery businesses and dealerships. Amidst post-Covid, post-Brexit and other uncertainties, its members will now have direct access to free employment law, HR, commercial law and tax advice services to help navigate complex legislative matters. This includes access to a legal and HR telephone advisory service, as well as a range of online tools and templates.

The new agreement with BAGMA means all members can access practical guidance on difficult and complex employment matters such as policies and procedures, contractual T&Cs, risk assessment, and employee correspondence. Professional webinars prepared by WorkNest’s experts will help BAGMA members to address common scenarios and compliance challenges, and a monthly newsletter will include expert advice aimed directly at land-based dealers, suppliers, and their support network.

All WorkNest advisors are qualified professionals who will provide support that is bespoke to each member and their circumstances. This access to specialist knowledge and reliable legal advice will complement a range of benefits already available to BAGMA members, including training, healthcare, banking, insurance, card processing and many others.

Keith Christian, Director at BAGMA, commented: “This is an exciting change to our member services as BAGMA now has its very own direct access to WorkNest support. It adds value for our members who are working hard to bounce back after the pandemic and operate within evolving national and international markets. Access to this type of support tailored to meet their specific needs and circumstances means our members have one less thing to worry about that is included in their membership package.”

Howard Trafford, Senior Partnerships Manager at WorkNest, said: “We’re hitting the ground running by providing immediate access to our range of preventative and proactive services trusted by tens of thousands of employers nationwide. We look forward to continuing to support BAGMA members to overcome the complexities of employment compliance, so that they can focus on building their businesses.”
