A look at legal compliance of platforms – which will survive (and be investible) and which won't?

Join us on 14th July 2021 @ 13:00

We are delighted to invite you to a webinar co-hosted with Osborne Clarke's Workforce Solutions Group looking at legal and regulatory issues affecting people service and talent matching platforms.

  • Review the regulatory framework that these platforms are subject to, including the Employment Agencies Act and consequences of non-compliance;
  • Discuss how recent case law (including the Supreme Court Uber decision regarding worker status) affects worker engagement by these platform
  • Look at platform models which facilitate payments to workers; whether they require FCA authorisation and consequences of operating without authorisation;
  • Consider different worker engagement models, workplace tax status and IR35;
  • Look at how umbrella and PEO companies are working with some platforms to provide payroll and tax compliance; and
  • Provide a summary of the key legal risk issues to be considered when operating, developing, investing in or acquiring a people service platform business.

If you will not be able to join us on the day or miss the webinar by any means, please send an email to holly.spiers@giantgroup.com who will send you the recording.
