Originally posted by Unix View PostContractors will always be needed, the clients will work around this and I doubt half of this will see the light of day, it's impossible to implement. There are thousands of contractors working, being hired, extended etc every day. This is FUD to scare the pseudo permie contractors into staying permie, all the better for us as supply will die and we will name our rate.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Originally posted by eek View PostNo. This is stuff designed to solve the problem of bogus self employment and the low paid. Its just being implemented badly because HMRC know no better and hence is going to impact us far more than it should...Comment

Originally posted by Unix View PostIf they do implement all of this, which I highly doubt, then companies could just hire us as permies on probation periods with a normally salary and big bonus easy to get around this, calm down.

Latest one being 'Thanks but that sounds like it is a permie job, you've just literally said we need permies but we can only find contractors, and I'm not suited to that sort of work (basically, IR35)',
'but we have some contractors doing it already that have been here for years'
Unless you're the lead dog, the scenery never changes.
