"Banning payroll companies, sometimes known as umbrella companies, which create a false structure to limit employers’ tax liabilities and limit workers’ rights"
Those companies which do not create a false structure to limit employers' tax liabilities and limit workers' rights should be fine though.Comment

I also suspect as I've stated before that the Taylor review will require agencies to provide a fee free payment method...merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Surely the whole point of an umbrella company is that the worker pays the full whack of tax and NICs?
The target of this legislation is deliveroo drivers earning **** all and getting no rights. The sledgehammer used to crack the nut will mean proper freelancers get collared also.
However, I'm really not so sure the Tories also don't have visions on the same. I don't use an Umbrella, so this doesn't impact me. ;-)Taking a break from contractingComment

Umbrella companies are used by agencies because they want to advertise supply teacher jobs say at £150/165 when they used to be advertised at £140 PAYE employers NI deducted. The rates at first looked better for supply teachers and using umbrella's removes risk and pain for the agencies. Downside is teachers aren't getting what they believe was advertised and hence are annoyed.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
