Why should you choose this course?
Are you aware that the employment status of your workforce can have serious tax implications?

It is therefore essential to maintaining a clear and effective tax base, where individuals and employers know the accurate rates of tax and National Insurance contributions (NICs) they are applicable to.
Each type of employment status has different tax implications and it can often be confusing to depict the rules and regulations.

“DACB led our response to an investigation with HMRC into the self-employed status covering a significant part of our workforce. They brought significant experience to both the subject matter and the investigation process itself and managed our activities in a way that enabled us to be well prepared and briefed at all times. Of note was the way they maintained the pressure on all parties to drive the investigation to a ‘speedy’ satisfactory conclusion” FD of healthtech business.
