The DBA Act remains a hot topic for many organizations. After all, how do you remain agile in your personnel policy, without the risk of false self-employment or retrospective levies from the Inland Revenue?
At Panthion, we help directors and HR professionals with this challenge every day. Thanks to our dual approach – recruitment & selection and secondment from employment – we offer the flexibility organizations are looking for, without legal pitfalls.
🔎 Briefly back: What is the problem with the DBA Act?
The Deregulation of Assessment of Employment Relations Act (DBA) was created to combat false self-employment. In practice, this means that hiring self-employed workers carries risks such as:
- The contractor is actually employed,
- There is a relationship of authority,
- The contractor does not bear independent entrepreneurial risk.
And if the Internal Revenue Service concludes that? Then hefty back taxes could follow for the client.
✅ This is how Panthion offers security and flexibility
At Panthion, we have chosen a clear and legally secure method of working:
