DWP recently issued a 30 day notice to terminate all the interim contract staff they have on site and are putting pressure on the contractors to leave their current agencies and move to Capita Resourcing under terms yet to be disclosed to the contractors. The department adopted a single source model all it interim resources late last month following an open tender. I’m wondering if anyone out there has seen the proposed Capita Contract and had look at the IR35 issues. With an end date for many being 18 July, there is not much time for some to decide on ‘do I stay or do I go’ and the terms being offered are key.

I would say any public sector gig is fooked re IR35.
When you go to court to contest your tax bill for £50K, the client (DWP) is going to side with the revenue on every issue aren't they?! -
It’s your own stupid fault for taking a government contract in the first place, but with the DWP!
How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

Can I ask a question here, are you contracted direct to DWP or can you tell us which agency this is with? Cheers.The cycle of life: born > learn > work > learn > dead.Comment

I did 6 months with the DWP - £600 per day, right on my doorstep, boss based in Leeds, 7.5 hours per day.....total and utter hell.Originally posted by Xenophon View PostThe pope is a tard.Comment

I'm suprised you'd be able to just leave your agency and join someone else to be honest - dont agents have clauses built into your contracts for specifically that?The pope is a tard.Comment
