    Virus warning

    I have been told among others that all contractors must leave the building to lighten the workforce to help contain the spread of Corona... I guess that we are in the frontline and new IR35 policies will be the final nail in the coffin for us and the economy.:igmc:

    That's it should I walk away?

    Of course not, I'm a honest straight and narrow company director just like all of you, struggling with a company and what the government throws at us whilst being exploited on unfair pay rates occasionally and a downturn of work. I had best give my last lb of flesh and pay everything off before...

    We will have to see what happens on the 6th then, but I'm sure there are many many others with the same view. The cat is sent among the pigeons.

    Then maybe taking a full time job or paying PAYE if caught by IR35 is more up your street.

    That's it should I walk away?

    What is business if you can't work to it's advantages, what do we do it for? If you had overheads what would you do? The law is changing and this is a last result.

    No, lost everything recently from a divorce so I have no assets what so ever.

    That's it should I walk away?

    Surely the loss of revenue by all these closing companies would have a massive affect on the government?

    Debts are corporation Tax.

    That's it should I walk away?

    What with the incoming onslaught to contractors and taking their rights to carry on as Ltd Companies which may have debts to HMRC, would it be advisable to go bankrupt and take a full time position as paying back these debts would be impossible?

    Being sent home early on Christmas eve

    In fact I would want to stay on and get my project finished, I also want to be paid, if the place closes early I can't have either. My contract states I am paid for each quarter of an hour hour I work for them. Disguised employee has no part here why would this deem me to be caught by IR35?

    I see the forums have improved with the sarcastic approach, very professional indeed. Thanks to those that can still give a professional answer.

    Being sent home early on Christmas eve

    Hi all The company I'm currently working at have a habbit of closing early on Xmas eve, they pay all permanent staff for the whole day, but alas will only pay me for my time in the office. I know there are pros and cons with this sort of work but wandered if this is normal procedure. Merry Xmas
