Protect yourself | IPSEIf you have an outstanding invoice with an end client, agency, or umbrella company that is going bankrupt or into administration, it’s likely you won’t get paid. That’s why we provide IPSE members with up to £10,000 if an end client or agency goes into administration and up to £2,500 if your umbrella company goes bankrupt or into administration.Comment
