Maintain Access to Interim Talent Post IR35 Reform in April 2021

Protect your business. Reduce your risk. And maintain access to a dynamic talent pool.

Date: 3 February 2021
Location: Virtual Webinar

IR35 reform was delayed from April 2020 to April 2021, but there seems to be a widespread belief that we will not see another delay from HMRC and the reform will indeed be taking place in two months' time. Boyden was well prepared for the reform back in 2020 having worked with external IR35 experts throughout 2019 to assist us in developing our knowledge on how to assess whether a role is inside or outside IR35. We were ready to work with clients on how to reduce the risk for all parties by getting a correct assessment that would stand up to scrutiny from HMRC. IR35 is still somewhat misunderstood by clients and interims alike and indeed in a recent webinar that Boyden hosted, we identified that only 53.3% of interims were confident in assessing whether a role is inside or outside IR35. 

Do you know the uplift in day rates for roles inside IR35?

So despite IR35 reform merely weeks away, there is still a lot of uncertainty

This is where Boyden can help our network of interims in establishing the IR35 status of opportunities, as well as working with our clients to make sure they can still access this excellent pool of interim talent available.

Boyden can work with you to assess whether the requirement for an interim is a project that scopes inside or outside IR35. We partner with insurance providers who will indemnify the decision of the IR35 assessment. This will cover all costs incurred against any future challenge from HMRC.
