#10 CONSTRUCTION TAX ALERT - Why More Businesses Get This Wrong

This episode of Fresh Perspectives explores the Construction Industry Scheme and why it presents a growing risk for businesses well beyond traditional construction firms.

Rob Brown is joined by Jo Gander, Employment Tax Adviser at Azets, who explains why the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) remains one of the most complex and high-risk areas of employment tax.

They look at how HMRC scrutiny is increasing, why many businesses wrongly assume CIS does not apply to them, and how firms can become exposed without realising it.

Jo Gander is an Employment Tax Adviser at Azets with specialist expertise in the Construction Industry Scheme. You can connect with her on LinkedIn here.
