    Why am I paying Employers NI?

    You need to agree a rate which is 20% at minimum higher than you expect to be paid to factor in Employers NI, Umbrella Fee and Apprentice Levy. In my field this took a few years to factor in but rates have increased to cover these additional costs (almost). At one time Agencies offloading...
