Talking. Sustainability. – Good Governance series - Umbrella Companies
In the first of our series focussing on Good Tax Governance,
Kulsoom Hadi from our Incentives and Remuneration team discusses the use of
umbrella companies. While umbrella companies can provide administrative
benefits for businesses when managing a flexible workforce, the UK tax
authorities are live to the risk of avoidance and expect end users to have
appropriate oversight of how the umbrella companies in their supply chain
manage their tax compliance. Kulsoom discusses the current compliance landscape
and the practical impact for businesses engaging staff through umbrella
companies. -
