IR35 Hub
The off-payroll legislation – commonly referred to as IR35 – is a set of tax rules designed to make sure that when a contractor provides their services using a personal service company in a manner that is more akin to employment, than a business service, they and their deemed employer pay the correct amount of tax.
Affecting all parts of the labour supply chain, the risks, liabilities, and financial consequences of getting the employment status decision wrong can be significant. With ambiguous tax laws the rules are complex, therefore, it’s important to be well informed and seek professional advice.
WTT have extensive experience advising on all matters IR35, providing status determinations, contractual and working practice reviews.
Statements of Work
A Statement of Work (SOW) offers an alternative to conventional recruitment models for project-based work. Instead of supplying labour, SOW is the provision of a service, based on a fixed price subject to the achievement of deliverables. This model provides the end client with more certainty on project price and shifts most of the financial risk, onto the consultancy or agency.
A genuine SOW is exempt from the off-payroll legislation. This means that the agency or consultancy, rather than the end client, is responsible for issuing the status determination statements for any contractors it engages (unless exemptions apply).
