Deltabus / For bus and coach operators / The Advantages of Hiring Contractors over Employees

If you want to start up a bus or coach business quickly, put your existing business back on the rails or you need someone to fill in whilst you find a permanent replacement, talking to us about our contracted services will put your mind at rest.

 

It’s our business to ensure that you get better value for money hiring us as contractors than you would engaging an employee for the same period of time.

 

We will only charge you for the time we work, so you don’t need to worry about flexitime, lunchbreaks or coffee breaks, staff meetings or overtime.

 

Most importantly, an employee merely has job security and loyalty to commit him or her to providing timely, quality service, and at the end of their employment, will they bother finalising work in their final days and produce quality handover documentation so that the next person can take over effectively?

 

We are proud of our quality work and our commitment to delight our customers. Our reputation is our biggest asset. So we intend to keep it.

 

So as an operator, you can be assured that all these good words and promises of quality and work ethics are backed up with a formal, written contract with you, ensuring that all the agreed events will be completed – to your satisfaction – at no extra cost if additional work is required to rectify.

 

Finally, you don’t have to worry about hidden legal issues when hiring contractors.

 

As an independent contractor, we believe that we operate legitimately outside IR35 tax legislation. Our written contract describes our business to business working practices between us and you, and describes exactly what services are and are not undertaken.

 

We’ll give you the time to study and understand our short contract, and encourage you to consult with legal experts if you prefer. Our contract protects you, the client, from claims by HMRC that you are using a contractor as an employee.

 

Having a contractor on your team instead of a specific staff member means that you don’t have to undertake the time, expenses and legal complexities concerning:

 

  • recruitment
  • supervision,
  • expenses,
  • PPE,
  • IT equipment,
  • redundancy,
  • Employer PAYE contributions,
  • Employer NI contributions,
  • pension contributions,
  • payment for days covering sickness, holidays, bank holidays and training

 

By using our services as a contractor rather than an employee we save you money and give you peace of mind. Which is all good for you as an operator.
