About HardHats

The use of long-term sub-contractors within Construction is now common practice and with this comes the inherent risk of being accused of false self-employment by HMRC. For those concerned about the risk of having your sub-contractors reclassified as employees and the accompanying financial impact, there has only ever been three options available to them: 1. Make them an employee (PAYE) 2. Engage with a payroll company 3. Continue to take the risk Although risk free, PAYE can prove costly and removes the flexibility of contract labour. Payroll companies sever all ties between you and the sub-contractor but for that you lose control of your payroll and have to tell your sub-contractors they will have to take a pay cut of £15.00 per week. Continuing to take the risk… well, that doesn’t need an answer does it? But there is a FOURTH option. ABOUT HardHats was built as an alternative to the payroll company solution for construction companies who are concerned with the risk from HMRC in having sub-contractors longer-term but don’t want to lose control of their payroll. WHAT WE DO By using the law (which is actually on your side) we allow you to have an on-going self-employed workforce with zero risk from HMRC. We are that confident, what we do comes fully guaranteed! This means that should HMRC open an enquiry and determine your sub-contractors are employees, HardHats bear the financial responsibility. Not you. WHO FOR CIS and false self-employment has been a hot topic for many years with varied opinions across the industry. For those who do have concerns about the relationship with their sub-contractors, have explored alternatives and concluded them not right for the business; HardHats may be the perfect fit. By working with HardHats, you will continue to work as you do now including how you currently pay your sub-contractors, but with complete peace of mind HMRC no longer pose a threat.
