What Is CIS
First introduced in 1971, the Construction Industry Scheme (more commonly known as CIS), was set up by HMRC as a way to effectively collect tax payments from self-employed people within the construction industry. This was to prevent tax evasion and ensure all construction workers were paid correctly.
The majority of workers within the construction industry must be registered with CIS. For a contractor, it's mandatory whereas for a subcontractor it's a choice. However, a subcontractor who is unregistered will have a 30% CIS deduction automatically taken from their earnings, whereas for those with a registered CIS status it's only 20%.
Recruitment agencies that work in the construction industry should be CIS-registered to ensure they are compliant with HMRC.
Calculate the penalties if HMRC decides your subbies are employees
With HMRC carrying out tens of thousands of new investigations each month, there is a high risk of big fines and penalties if your contracts are not satisfactory, or you have not fully understood the ever changing complexities of CIS (Construction Industry Scheme).

What our customers say
We Guarantee
Protection from HMRC reclassifing your subbies as employees.
If HMRC were to reclassify just one self-employed subbie as an employee with an average weekly pay of £1,000, the liability would surpass £9,500 in a year.
For a group of 15 self-employed subbies, this liability would escalate to over £136,000. These staggering amounts exclude potential HMRC fines, unpaid interest charges, or legal costs associated with challenging HMRC.
