EEBS protect you from HMRC reclassifying your workforce as employees EEBS have been providing a compliant payroll solution for UK contractors working in construction for over 20 years. If you pay sub-contractors on a regular basis then you could be a risk from HMRC reclassifying them as employees and incur hefty fines. EEBS protect construction firms from HMRC employment status reviews, and Employment Rights claims whilst helping them to retain as much commercial flexibility as legislation allows, and avoiding unnecessary costs.
