Disguised Remuneration

This work explains the practical application of a body of tax legislation that was first enacted in 2011, and that has been amended or re-enacted in most subsequent years.

This detailed, technical book is aimed squarely at professional advisers.

The legislation has had a devastating impact on many of the more than 50,000 participators in the schemes, who have ended up much worse off than if they had never entered into the scheme in the first place, even though in reality they often had no choice but to do so if they wanted to accept the remunerative work on offer.

Although formally headed “Employment income provided through third parties”, the scope of the rules is in reality much wider and can give rise to charges to tax and NIC even if no employment income is received by the employee. The charge also extends to close company directors and even to self-employed contractors.
