WARNING - NOT PSC FRIENDLY ANYMORE

Outside IR35 banned
Division: Engineering
AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE. Worley are now taking a blanket approach in order to remove PSC from their business, your only option will be staff or PAYE, with the rate reduced to pay for THEIR employee NI contributions. Over 600 people in the UK are set to be effected and by June all of them will be given the option to leave the business or accept a vastly reduced PAYE rate. They are completely unable to recruit any position now due to their PAYE rates, if they offer you PSC be aware that come June at the latest you will be caught up in this. Not that they'll mind, their plan all along has been to run down their UK business and fill voids with their Indian engineering centres.

Unfair IR35 assessment
Blanket decisions in for Worley personnel on the TCO project. All inside. They used IR35 Shield, with over half the answers filled out that we could not see . People in Brentford outside but Farnborough inside? What a joke ! Assessment is all wool to achieve a predetermined outcome.

IR35 fairly assessed

IR35 Shield. 80 fee for assessment but there seems to be a genuine corporate will to make it work. General morale is high now results are out.

Delayed determination until 14/02 no one being told anything. Internally management are being pushed to send all design work to India looks like they'll be laying UK contractors off and sending work abroad.

Getting billed 70quid off our weekly involvices for a assessment that's nearly completely answered by worley - not a fair assessment!!!! No updates yet, waiting on the results since December. Looks like most contractors are looking to leave if inside status is returned.

Statement sent out stating that worley are contractor friendly. IR35 assessments sent out using IR35 Shield but with almost every question pre answered and redacted. No assessment determinations available yet. looks like blanket treatment ignoring basic contract arrangements and working practices
