    Brief

    This project focuses on strengthening the control framework for IR35 (Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003) compliance. The initiative aims to improve oversight and enforcement mechanisms to ensure proper classification of workers as either employees or contractors, reducing tax evasion risk and ensuring fair application of employment regulations. The project seeks to enhance internal controls, documentation standards, and verification procedures for determining worker status. This opportunity is relevant for organizations involved in contractor management, payroll services, tax compliance, or consultancy services seeking to demonstrate robust IR35 compliance processes and strengthen their control environments.
