Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) Guidance for New Businesses
Like any new venture it’s important to get it right from the start to avoid any issues further down the line. Here’s how EEBS can help you get it right from the get go.
Construction — The Biggest Source of Entrepreneurs in the Economy!
I don’t think there’s a single construction firm in the country that didn’t start out with a skilled tradesman thinking “I can do a better job than that!”
More often than not this leads to the tradesman taking on workers of his own, and before long — hey presto — there’s another new construction business in the marketplace!
Well congratulations, working as a self-employed sub-contractor supplying EEBS with your business services is your first step on that ladder! Right now you may be more than happy to stay as you are — which is absolutely great, supporting those arrangements is what we are all about!
But if you are thinking of expanding your options, we can provide support and advice regarding all of your options from the pros and cons of engaging employees or self-employed sub-contractors, to the operation of CIS, insurance and all of the other issues around running your own business — we can help.
EEBS can provide you with guidance on the following subject matters, this information will be helpful to you in your transition from sub-contractor to business owner! And you can call us at any time for guidance that meets your specific needs.
How can we help you?
We have several resources to help sub-contractors, whether that’s the most frequently asked questions we get asked, submitting your tax return or even setting up a business and becoming a contractor yourself.
