Medium sized specialist sub-contractor

Case Study

Home > Medium sized specialist sub-contractor

The Issue

We have numerous clients who are both contractors and sub-contractors in their chosen industry – Bricklaying, scaffolding, etc, and the client in this example is a specialist M&E contractor working for their own clients with large diverse portfolios.

 

The client has a core of fully employed staff, in managerial site supervisory and site liaison roles. Their site workforce consists of employees and fully skilled sub-contractors working in parallel.

 

The Risk

In the absence of separate processes, policies and working practices it would have been impossible for the client to defend against the argument that, as there was no difference in the working practices on site, all tradespeople are in fact employees.

The Solution

The self-employed element of the workforce is now outsourced to EEBS. We have completed a full restructure of the working practices and support procedures on site, implemented new contracts and operational systems, works orders and recording systems that supports the new way of working and fully protects the distinction between the employed and self-employed workers.

EEBS Solutions include:

CIS Firewall

“We are confident that we can rely on EEBS to keep us up to date with any changes and ensure we continue to comply.”

Christine Shearing, Kenwood Groundworks

 

"J&J Windows & Doors Limited have been using EEBS Limited to pay my colleagues and I for over 6 months and I can quite honestly say that the service EEBS provides is superb! It allows me to remain self-employed, they ensure that I'm verified with HMRC, that my CIS tax is calculated correctly and most importantly that my wages are always paid correctly and on time. I would without a doubt recommend EEBS to friends, family, and colleagues."

James Last, J&J Windows & Doors

 

“I can call on EEBS when required without the worrying of being tied into an agreement.”

Peter James, Pete’s Landscaping

 

"We have used EEBS for our wage processing for around 3 years now. We were unhappy with the previous company as they felt 'too big' and did not provide a personal service at all. I am extremely happy with EEBS and can honestly say all their staff are pleasant, conscientious and an absolute pleasure to deal with. I cannot recommend EEBS enough, they thoroughly earn their (reasonable) fees and enable us to focus on more commercial and day to day aspects of running our company."

 

Ally Din

"We have used EEBS for 7 years now and we cannot fault their service. They keep us up to date with new legislation and regularly carry out compliance reviews. Their staff are friendly and knowledgeable and the processing rates are fair."

 

Ceilidh Embling

"We have used EEBS for 4 months now and what a delightful team. Toni & Colette have been nothing but "BRILLIANT" They have bent over backwards to resolve queries and are always at the end of the telephone... Thank you EEBS for being FANTASTIC!"

 

Dee Nathwani

"Would highly recommend EEBS, we have used a few payroll companies in the past but by far these guys are the best. Always so helpful and very knowledgeable, such a great company to work with."
