IR35 u-turn made
Division: Group IT
Total U-turn based on the Governments delay because of COVID-19. Absolutely sure they will just revert to blanket ban on PSC come next April as have not seen any evidence of work on Individual assessments even though multiple contractors have asked!

Assessment withdrawn, therefore effectively as if no Status Determination has taken place. Can continue as before.

Sh*t comms which is no surprise and still this isn't official. Don't really blame clients as they are exposed to mega risk. HMRC however have some f***ing nerve though. ****s!

No CEST individual assessment. No involvement of contractor in decision. Blanket inside IR35. Rare exceptions individually assessed. Offering minimal uplift on rate. Some going PAYE, some just going. Projects will undoubtedly be affected. Offer of perm for some.
