Workforce Review
If your business relies on subcontractors, you've probably asked yourself this question at some point:
are they genuinely self-employed, or are they actually employees in practice?
It's one of the greyest areas in employment law and getting it wrong is costly.
HMRC and employment tribunals don't just look at what's written in your contracts. They look at how the working relationship actually operates: control, mutuality of obligation, substitution rights, equipment, exclusivity, and more.
I carry out full workforce status reviews for local businesses - construction, trades, and beyond - to check whether your workforce is correctly classified, and if it's not, what you can do to put it right.
What you get:
-
A full review of your current workforce arrangements
-
Clear findings on where you're exposed and where you're not
-
A written report you can act on, with practical next steps
-
Straightforward recommendations - no jargon, no scaremongering
You make the final call on how you run your business.
My job is to give you the full picture, weigh up the risk, and make sure you're making that call with your eyes open.
