Compliance & Legal
Built for Clarity. Structured for Compliance.
RP Resource isn’t a payroll company, umbrella, or recruiter — and we don’t blur those lines. We exist to provide structure and compliance support for genuine business-to-business engagements. Our platform is designed to help clients and professionals operate within UK regulations with the right documentation, checks, and controls in place.
We don’t take shortcuts, and we don’t overstep. Our framework is built to support proper classification and prevent the risks associated with non-compliant models.
IR35 and Employment Status
We take IR35 seriously. Our onboarding process includes steps to support status assessment and ensure engagements are properly classified. While final responsibility for IR35 determinations lies with the client (where applicable), we provide the framework, documentation, and prompts to make the process easier and clearer.
Professionals remain responsible for their company affairs, but we help all parties engage under terms that reflect reality — outcome-based, deliverable-driven, and commercially sound.
MSC Avoidance
RP Resource is not a Managed Service Company Provider. We do not control, direct, or influence how contractors run their business, nor do we manage payments, dictate assignments, or provide personal tax advice.
We provide infrastructure — not intervention. All contracts are direct between the client and the professional’s company, and every engagement is structured to avoid MSC triggers.
Disguised Remuneration & Tax Avoidance
We do not operate loan schemes, salary redirection models, or anything resembling disguised remuneration. All value received by a professional is through their own limited company under a genuine commercial agreement. There are no backdoor incentives, no offshore vehicles, and no promises of tax savings.
RP Resource does not market or facilitate tax avoidance, and we make that position clear to all participants from the outset.

Responsibility and Disclaimers
RP Resource provides tools and templates designed to support compliant engagement, but we do not provide legal, tax, or financial advice. Clients and professionals remain responsible for their own obligations under UK law.
All parties are encouraged to seek independent advice where needed.
