<p>In accordance with retention policy and in preparation to ensure compliance with
the 2017 reforms to the off-payroll working rules, RCDTS only holds a complete central
record of engagements from 2016 to present.</p><p> </p><p>With contingent staff there
is always at least one agency between RCDTS and the individual contractor, although
in practice this contract may be further sub-contracted, so that there are multiple
agencies between RCDTS and the contractor.</p><p> </p><p>Umbrella companies are known
to be used by off-payroll workers engaged via an intermediary and records show this
to be the case for 102 or 43% of total engagements for which records are held.</p><p>
</p><p>RCDTS would hold a contractual relationship with either the recruitment agency
or service provider rather than any umbrella company and is not involved in the payment
arrangements of individual contractors.</p>
