    It seems to all depend on how 'significant' a second or even third client is in terms of your overall earnings. If you have one main contract that falls inside IR35 it won't help if you have another client that you work for a couple of hours a week

    This has been discussed before - do a search on HAYS.

    I believe they have a contract called 'HT20' or something that got a pass from B&C. They always used to pay weekly.

    Contract by contract basis - you could basically work inside IR35 for two clients in a week (i.e. they tell you when to turn up and what work to do)

They also seem to be putting far more emphasis on having an 'unfettered' right of substitution - what are the panels' experiences? Is it quite rare to find an agency that will accept a replacement for you without them or the client having the right to veto?

    I worked for them directly for a gig at UBS, their standard T&C's are not
    IR35 compliant, and they will not do anything to change them.
