would you consider following clients Change process SDC ?
Change management is an essential and well used IT Practice Contractors would be expected to adhere to the process, question is would it be deemed as controlling how the work is provided i.e. "Do it like this" ?

Supervision over the manner in which the worker provides the services is the action or process of watching or overseeing what a person does or how something is to be done. If a person checks or has the right to check the work that the worker is doing to make sure it meets a required standard, the manner in which the worker provides the services is subject to supervision.
Supervision can involve helping the worker develop their skills and knowledge.
Direction over the manner in which the worker provides the services is making a worker do their work in a certain way by providing them with instructions, guidance, or advice as to how the work must be done. Someone providing direction will often co-ordinate how the work is done as it’s being undertaken.
Control over the manner in which the worker provides the services is telling or instructing a worker about how they do the work. Control over how the person does work also includes someone having the power to move the person from one job to another. If someone can say “don’t do it like that” or “do it like this” then they have a right of control as to the manner in which a person works.

It would be good if we could get the CUK article pulled or corrected. I'll PM admin, unless someone has done that already?
I wouldn't be too surprised if this was a case of FSCA reading what they wanted to see, without thinking about it too carefully. Perhaps it was an honest mistake. Either way, it does nothing for their reputation. I've seen other umbrella companies trying to spread FUD in the hope that their clients won't switch to a Ltd company. TBH, I doubt many will, because there are other factors, but it won't help their cause to lie about the situation.

Unfortunately it's in the interests of brollies to push the "we're all in it together" message, and spread a bit of uncertainty.
