IPSE was started twenty-five years ago in direct opposition to IR35 and we are still campaigning today. Over the years we’ve pushed for and achieved improvements to the rules, we’ve staunchly opposed damaging reforms, we’ve had a few moments of optimism and near misses but ultimately IR35 is still on the statute book and still causing big problems for contractors.
In this webinar IPSE’s Director of Policy, Andy Chamberlain, Senior Policy and Communications Adviser, Fred Hicks, and Senior Research and Policy Officer, Josh Toovey, will discuss how IR35 has changed, what the future for IR35 looks like and why we still believe IR35 should be scrapped.
The webinar will cover:
As always, there will be an opportunity to ask questions on the day – alternatively, you can submit your questions in advance when registering for the event.

This webinar is part of the IR35 webinar series that IPSE are hosting. The IR35 legislation (and it’s younger sibling, the off-payroll working rules) is as complex and unpredictable as ever. That’s why, starting in February, the IPSE Policy team will be hosting a short series of IR35 webinars covering everything from the basics of what IR35 is right through to IPSE’s campaigning for a change to the law.
Whether you’re a seasoned professional looking to brush up on your IR35 knowledge, or a prospective freelancer in need of an introduction to the rules before launching your contracting career – we’re aiming to offer something for everyone in this series.
