040 IR35 Reforms and Risks - what if you're "outside IR35"?

For second time in two weeks, we're excited to welcome back self-confessed IR35 geek, Dave Chaplin! We're continuing our discussion about the impact of the off-payroll legislation, one year after implementation in the private sector. It's a serious subject with serious financial implications for self-employed contractors, so you really need to listen! Join us to hear about:

• What you need to watch out for if your assignment is 'outside IR35';
• Why you MUST check for any indemnity clauses in your contract;
• Why you pay zero tax if HMRC successfully challenge an outside IR35 status;
• Beware of any insurance you buy because any IR35 inquiry would not be with you (unlike pre-reforms);
• Reasonable care and how risk moves around the supply chain;
• Latest tax tribunals, defendable position, and the outlook for the market.

Dave is an old friend of the show who really does know his stuff, so make yourself a brew and settle down for a good natter on all things IR35. We chatted for longer than this 30 minutes and if you missed the first half you can catch the previous episode here. (To be honest, we could actually talk about this stuff all day long!)
