If being in IR35 becomes the new norm in the private sector it will kill contracting being a mobile resource, especially at the lower end of the rate scale.

Depends if inside public sector, where its taxpayers money’s and people can get 35% if private sector the answer will be ZERO as client will be able to pick and choose people by the dozen willing to work inside IR35 for same rate, unless you are in that magical 1% that they can’t find the skill for

However you will have to have the balls to challenge your "employer's" decision on your status, probably at an ET where you will be claiming holiday and pension rights á la Susan Winchester or your IR35 status at the commissioners. If enough people start that process the clients will soon look for a better solution.
What we ought to be doing is teaching clients that the 2020 changes do not mean they have to put everyone inside IR35 out of fear of the taxman, but recruit their contractors on a proper B2B basis so there is no place for IR35 to apply. If they do realise that the world will keep on turning.
It's that education that is missing. The agencies are holding seminars left, right and centre - and, naturally enough, selling the wrong answer to protect their own business model.
I have tried with my agency ref Private Sector IR35 next year, and there is nothing going on and seemingly no one to speak to about it, much less educate.
Mine is just a supposing of what the reality might, in all likelihood, be.Comment

Wouldn't take one, on principle, because I don't want to deal with the crap that disguised employees deal with (and I also wouldn't take one that was nominally inside but with working practices that contradicted that, again on principle).
But, to answer your question directly, probably 30-35%.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

They weren't happy but had to hike rates by 35%.
OK. Maybe easier with PS money to do this but I'd argue that private companies are going to have no choice either.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

But you in the public sector will still soon have major competition as the cream from the private sector look to move over and replace to maintain there rates
