Why does my team need IR35 & off-payroll training?
Without fully understanding IR35 and off-payroll, hiring limited company contractors can pose significant risks to your business.
Skill up your hiring team to HMRC's standards with our IR35 & off-payroll training courses, designed by the IR35 experts.
IR35 can be tricky. We break down what HMRC expect you to know, and combine it with knowledge unique to your business so your team can hire confidently.
Meet current HMRC guidelines
To meet current HMRC guidelines, organisations affected by off-payroll working should have “robust training in place for employees who will need to understand and operate the rules”.

Our recent successes
IR35 Case: RALC Consulting v HMRC
The team successfully defended IT Contractor Richard Alcock at First-tier Tribunal, which defeated two barristers representing HMRC Solicitor’s Office. Chris and Dave worked together for 18 months to build the case defence before defending during a four day hearing. They succeeded in countering HMRC’s IR35 Opinion and extended time assessments with the Judge upholding RALC’s appeals.
IR35 Shield Swiftly Closes HMRC IR35 Investigation
When a long-time client of IR35 Shield received notice of an IR35 investigation by HMRC, the company turned to IR35 Shield's compliance experts for representation. Within months, the investigation was closed with no tax bill.
Ongoing enquiries
Dave and Chris are currently managing a range of IR35 enquiries and also offer consulting for businesses to help ensure their procedures and processes achieve defendable positions in light of the new off-payroll working legislation.
