Effects of IR35 and MSC Legislation on contractors & freelancers
As part of my course at university, I have to do a research project and I've centred mine around IR35 and Managed Service Companies Legislation. I've designed a survey with the main aim of finding out the effects of IR35 and Managed Service Companies Legislation on contractors and free lancers. I would appreciate it if you could take a few mins to complete the survey ( it's totally anonymous and there are no questions requesting your personal details like name,email,address etc). If interested here's the link to the survey:
I think you're starting from the wrong place. Umbrella, MSC and IR35 are mutually exclusive. If you understodd the market, you might then be able to ask more intelligent questions: I suggest you go away and read the First Timer contract guides on here and at www.pcg.org.uk so you get an insight into how the real world works.
In terms of impact, consider this: as a result of IR35 every contract negotiation requires all three parties to devote significant time, money and effort ensuring that the contract does not allow either the contractor to be given or the client to have to offer employment rights and conditions, which neither side has any desire for in the first place an dwould otherwise quite cheerfully ignore.

The survey needs work. As has been observed - umbrella companies and MSC providers are different entities. This was the case before the government heard about them.
