So I have been asked to opt out of Conduct of employment agencies 2003 act, for an IR35 caught contract. This is before I have been introduced to the client *for this role*.
I have read a fair bit (including a thread here from 2015) but I am confused as to how things may have changed with the recent IR35 changes.
Here are my assumptions/understandings so far
a) The opt out has to be done before introduction to client.
b) When doing a non IR35 caught contract my company does not want me to look like an employee of the client so I am happy to opt out of anything that looks like employee rights or 'agency worker rights'. The agreement is in the contract.
c) When doing IR35 caught work through an umbrella my company probably wont have anything to do with the contract. I will be acting as an individual and will want all the rights due to a temporary employee. I can't see any benefit to opting out.
So in summary, when doing contract work B2B in a non IR35 caught way, I am happy to opt out.
When doing temporary work under an IR35 caught contract I don't want to opt out.
Have I missed anything?
