What to do now

Things to think about include:

• reviewing the self-employment status of existing subcontractors
• reviewing computer systems/payroll systems to ensure that the monthly ‘payslip’ can be generated in the required format
• ensuring that advice and training is undertaken to ensure a good understanding of the self-employment tests
• ensuring that systems are put in place to cope with the verification process, payment process and monthly return process.
