Race against fire in Ávila and Madrid: 24 critical hours before the heat wave

The next few hours will be crucial to try to stabilize the large forest fires that are raging uncontrollably in the provinces of Ávila and Toledo and the Community of Madrid. The fires, which have been attacked as one for days, are advancing, but much more slowly thanks to especially complex extinguishing efforts due to the weather conditions, which have never been favorable, the orography and the influence that some sources exert on others. Several fronts have already been stabilized and the authorities’ optimism is cautious. Several heads – the front parts of the fires – continue to burn in…

Employees in prison: Effective termination depends on the length of imprisonment

If an employee is sentenced to a prison sentence of three years and three months, his employer can therefore terminate the employment relationship with him for personal reasons. This emerges from a ruling by the Stuttgart Labor Court, in which an assembly worker’s claim for protection against dismissal was dismissed.

The trial involved a man who had been employed by a collectively agreed automobile manufacturer since May 2018. After he was sentenced to a total prison sentence of 39 months…

The fires in Madrid, Ávila and Toledo already affect 77,000 hectares and force 90,000 people to be evacuated or confined

The forest fires that are devastating the province of Ávila and the Community of Madrid are still active, although their progress is slower. The extinction is being complex and has been made difficult by strong gusts of wind. After several days of rapid advance, on Sunday many of the fronts were contained, although “several heads” remain active and the fires cannot be considered perimeter-bound. The efforts this Monday will go in that direction: try to achieve stabilization, protect populations and avoid a fusion of the flames of the two major sources. The evolution is positive, but very slow and the…

The Tax Questions Leeds Business Owners Often Put Off Until HMRC Asks Them

For many business owners, tax is something dealt with when a deadline appears on the calendar. The accounts are prepared. The figures are checked. The return is submitted. Then attention moves back to customers, staff and the daily demands of running a business. That approach is understandable, particularly for small businesses. But it can also create a problem. Tax affairs can become increasingly complicated without the business owner realising it. A company may grow. A director may start taking money from the business in different ways.

A company may be based in the United Kingdom, while its customers, investors or commercial partners are located elsewhere…
