Finance Bill
The Finance Bill introduced a simplified test of self employment focusing on whether the work is subject to supervision, direction or control. Do you currently pay temporary workers on a self employed or sole trader basis? Are you confident that your CIS or self employed workers are not subject to supervision, direction or control?
The work status of every contractor should be checked immediately, 15 workers earning £20 per hour exposes you to over £100,000 per annum of Employers N.I. risk.
