Subcontractor > Benefits
We provide 3 contracting solutions for self-employed and PAYE subcontractors: Freelance Plus, CIS Plus, and Umbrella Plus. These are designed to meet the differing needs of individuals and the industry in which they work.
Freelance Plus - is for genuinely self-employed subcontractors working outside the construction industry.
CIS Plus - is for genuinely self-employed subcontractors working in the construction industry.
Umbrella Plus - is for employees working in any industry sector on a PAYE basis.
These contracting solutions allow you to choose the appropriate solution that meets your needs and enables you to optimise your earnings in a compliant manner.
