What to Expect

FAQ’s and the answers you need

What is an Umbrella Company?

An umbrella company is a PAYE payroll administration company that acts as the employer for contractors who work on an assignment basis.

What are the benefits?

As an employee, you have full entitlement to state benefits like Statutory Sick Pay, Statutory Maternity Pay and a State Pension. The umbrella company acts as your employer and so can provide a continuous record of employment which can assist with loan and mortgage applications.

How do NI payments work?

The Umbrella Company processes PAYE payroll as your employer.

Pay As You Earn, or PAYE, is the taxation system used by HMRC to collect Income Tax and National Insurance Contributions (NICs) from employees. The amount deducted will depend on your earnings and the tax code you are on.

This means that as a PAYE employee of an umbrella company, you won’t need to submit any kind of tax self-assessment. You will be paying your tax and National Insurance contributions as you go.
