PAYE FAQs
What is a PAYE contract?

It’s a contract for services meaning that you engage the candidate as a worker rather than an employee. This allows for maximum flexibility for typical temp supply.

 

How is a Lawspeed PAYE contract different from a generic contract?

It’s a framework agreement, so you only need to issue it once. It includes features like click acceptance, optional built-in working time opt-out, and assignment confirmation forms — saving you time and ensuring compliance.

Do I need to use ProTerms?

No. The PAYE contract can be used with or without ProTerms. If you do use ProTerms, you can issue, track, and store everything in one place for extra efficiency.

Will the contract stay up to date with law changes?

Yes unless you choose otherwise. All Lawspeed contracts come with automatic updates as standard. You never need to worry about being caught out by legislation changes.

Do I need to reissue the contract every time I place a worker?

No. It’s a framework agreement, meaning once accepted, it covers all placements. For each assignment, you simply issue an assignment confirmation form.

What about worker protections?

The PAYE contract provides candidates with full worker rights and conduct regulation protection, meeting all compliance requirements.

What does ProTerms add?

The contract comes with ProTerms, Lawspeed’s contract automation platform. This means you can:

  • Issue your PAYE contract instantly
  • Track and store acceptance
  • Ensure updates are always rolled out across your agreements
