Birmingham - Business Tips

Birmingham Dress Code

For business meetings, both men and women wear suits. Socially, the British tend to have an informal yet presentable dress code. It is, however, advisable for men to bring a jacket and tie for dining out at exclusive restaurants where more formal dress may be required.

Greeting Someone in Birmingham

As in most countries, a handshake is the standard greeting. It is not customary to use Christian names at first meetings in England although this level of informality might be introduced. The British business community is extremely polite. Friendliness and attentive behaviour will ensure a smooth encounter.

Birmingham Business Hours and Banking

Business hours in the United Kingdom vary from one industry and sector to another but in general, most office environments will operate between 09:00 and 17:00, Monday to Friday. The majority of banks are open between 09:00 and 16:00, Monday to Friday, with some of the larger banks probably also open on Saturday mornings.

Birmingham Smoking

The British have neither a positive nor negative attitude towards smoking. Some restaurants may have a 'no smoking' policy but most tend to have areas catering for both those who want to smoke and those who do not. As far as social etiquette is concerned, although the issue is far less important than it is in the United States, it is still best to smoke in like-minded company.
