It’s that time of the year when people herald in the New Year with plans to renew their gym membership, eat less and cut down on booze. These resolutions also apply to the world of contracting.
Rob Crossland
Position: Managing Director
Company Name: Parasol
Rob Crossland founded Parasol in April 2000 after a career in the IT industry working for a range of software companies, latterly working as a freelance Project Manager. As a contractor himself, Rob spotted a gap in the market for a service to help freelancers and contractors maximise their income and minimise the hassle of being self-employed. He went on to develop Parasol into one of the fastest growing companies in the UK before leading an MBO in November 2006. Rob is also vice chairman of Super League rugby league club, Hull Kingston Rovers, and is also a keen Manchester City supporter, neither of which should be held against him!
Contractors given temporary relief from the Agency Workers Directive
Posted on 30 October 2009.
With the delay of the Agency Workers Directive (AWD) until October 2011, there is at last some relief for contractors. Make no mistake, AWD as drafted would have a big impact on contractors given that agencies and end-clients would be forced into processes that would at best delay placements and at worse, remove some of the roles available.
