Ship Shape Pay for Workers
Compliance
The last thing you need at the end of the year is the HMRC chasing you for unpaid tax. It’s our responsibility to ensure that there are no unpleasant surprises in the form of underpaid tax or fines due to incorrect employment status. We have a spotless record in this regard and passed a full HMRC compliance assessment in July 2009.
When you use Ship Shape as your payroll service we spend lots of time ensuring that your contract is compliant with the HMRC rules, but still maximises your income. This protects you, and the agencies and companies you work with from fines should the HMRC decide to deem you as "employed". Headlines such as the recent "Accountant’s mistakes means HMRC fine for worker" and "Essex Builder fined £800,000" are increasingly common, so it makes sense to use a specialist payroll service.
Ship Shape ensure compliance by:
Discussing your current contract with you and identifying whether you should be paid as an employee or under Self Employed Checking that contracts are correct, in place and HMRC compliant Accurate and effective record keeping via email and secure personal internet page Regular employment status reviews

If you are working in Construction, ensure that you register for CIS
On the 22nd July 2009 Ship Shape had a full HMRC CIS and employment status inspection at our offices and passed with flying colours. The HMRC inspectors were satisfied that our record keeping was 100% correct and stated that our compliance reviews were particularly robust. You can feel confident that Ship Shape is working hard on compliance, so you don’t have to worry about it.
