Hi All,
First time poster long time reader. I have a bit of a confusing work situation which I will try and explain the best I can, this is a new area to me and in need of some expert advise.
My current company (lets call them A) is a partner to a second company (company B). I applied for a contractor position at company B and was sucessful in getting the role but due to the relationship between the 2 companies company B needed to talk with my current employer first.
My employer has proposed that they contract me out to company B (acting as an umeberella company / agency) instead of me leaving and setting myself up. It seems though that my company wants the perks of still having me on their on books but want me to be as a self employed contractor.
> My employer wants to take Employers National Insurance from my day rate
> They have said they will not cover sick days or holiday pay (i understand being self employed this would be the case anyway but if I am still employed by my current employer apparently umberella compaines have the legal obligation to provide those)
> Will I be able to claim any expenses though my current employer as I would if I was self employed
I'm a bit confused with this situation and what it means, if anyone can offer any advise on this that would be great!!
Thanks
