As we have stated previously, ‘Do you operate in the Public Sector?’, one thing is clear, the landscape of temporary workers within the Public Sector will be affected by the imminent changes to the IR35 regulations. On Wednesday this week, TfL announced that they would no longer be accepting workers who operate through their own Professional Services Company (PSC) and we expect that this will be a continuing trend. The NHS has already ordered hospitals and healthcare institutes to stop paying employees through their own PSC. HMRC are tightening up on expenses and tax avoidance, and from this, yet again a traditional umbrella service will assist and facilitate these workers through all levels of the Public Sector.
Our payroll solutions are compliant to HMRC regulations. If you are being offered a ‘solution’ that doesn’t make any sense, or you are worried you have workers on a non-compliant product. Please call us to discuss to make sure the fingers aren’t left pointing at you come April 6th – it’s only 75 days away.
