Self-Employment

Being self-employed gives you the freedom to manage your own affairs. It allows you to work as much or as little as you want, when you want and with whom you want.

Our Freelance Plus solution is for genuine self-employed subcontractors working outside the construction industry. We will work with you to establish your employment status on projects. This can be done either online or over the phone for your convenience.

As a self-employed subcontractor, you are responsible for the management of your financial affairs, which includes things such as National Insurance contributions and overall tax liabilities. You can discuss how you can best accomplish this with HM Revenue & Customs.

Alternatively, to help you to optimise your earnings in a compliant manner, Crest Plus are able to make available the services of Independent Accountancy Service Providers to individual subcontractors if they so choose.

See independent accountancy page
We will remind you of all your responsibilities when you register. When looking for an accountancy service provider, it is important to consider the following services:

  • Free impartial advice
  • End of year tax return for self-employed subcontractors
  • Calculations
  • Secure document storage
  • Assistance with HM Revenue & Customs enquiries
  • Assistance with Companies House
  • Competitive rates
