If you're going direct, join the PCG (actually, join them anyway!)and use their standard contract. That's about as IR35-prooof as you'll get contractually. Plus if you're doing a specific piece of work on your own resources for a set fee, that's pretty much solid as well - to the extent that an RoS probably won't make a huge difference.

Yeah I am going to do that, I was just wondering what peoples gut feelings where.Originally posted by Sockpuppet View PostPossibly. There are many clauses that can be written to sound like one thing and mean another.
Search for B&C or QDos and get the contract reviewed by them.

First contract :)
Hi Everyone
Got my first contract postion!!! Wooo hooo!
The company needs a peice of software developing and I will be creating it at home ("business address") and I will probably building it for a fixed fee (maybe bill them for the total hours). We are still discussing the finer points. I will have a clause in the contract to cover substitution. If Mr Tax man comes knocking I will say my subs would of come from Elance or somewhere similar.
This to me sounds outside of IR35 would you guys agree ??Tags: None
