Up yours, sweetpea, I'm serious. Consider...
S3 group who own CP and others are determined to build a market where the only source of contractors is through them and similar monolithic companies. They are also behind the consultations that gave us IR35 in the first place (which was nothing to do with fair taxation but is actually all about limiting their competition). It is their marketing strategy that has fed so much FUD into the HR world that we get all these stupid and unnecessary interferences in the way we try to work.
They have also conned you into signing a contrct that effectively makes you their employee, except that you get none of the rights that employees have been getting since around the middle of the 19th century.
So if you think that is a good move and they are a good comapny to be with, carry on. Meanwhile, the grown-ups may not necessarily agree with you.Blog? What blog...?Comment
