I’m conscious of IR35 as I’m sure we all are, I work with a Private Sector client on site and occasionally from home using my own equipment to remotely log in. The work I am doing to is specific with deliverables; the contract has been extended from an initial 6 months to 15 and counting.
I understand that I should be collecting evidence which proves I am separate from the perm employees, the evidence I have is all hard copy papers nothing electronic.
• Emails notifying of times out of the office (WFH and non-billable time)
• Org charts where I am clearly marked as a contractor
• My email signatures clearly state contractor
• Joiners process documents which distinguish between perm and contractor on boarding
• Christmas furlough emails stating contractors are not to be in the office during Christmas
• Photo of my ID pass which is colour coded for contractors
• Contractor new joiner packs
• I make a point of outlining what I have been working on in my timesheets before they are submitted for approval.
As I say all this evidence is paper based I assume this would be acceptable, and is there anything else I should be collected as evidence to support any future IR35 interrogations?
