In our latest Tax. Simplified. podcast episode, Head of Incentives and Remuneration, Mahesh Varia, and Knowledge Counsel, Kulsoom Hadi, discuss two recent cases involving intermediaries linked to Gary Lineker and Eamonn Holmes and consider what this might mean for other workers providing their services in this way and their clients.
When a worker provides services to an end client through an intermediary (such as a personal service company) special rules (known as IR35) can mean that the worker is taxed as an employee rather than a self-employed person. In recent months, there have been several cases in which HMRC have challenged the intermediaries of well-known TV and radio presenters with the different results showing how complicated these rules can be to apply.
