TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT (TEMPORARY CANDIDATES ONLY)

If you are seeking temporary work, we are legally required to (i) agree the basis on which you contract with us before we can provide work-finding services to you and (ii) provide you with certain information about our preferred umbrella and intermediary companies. However agreeing a contract with us does not obligate you to work through Kenton Black and you are free to change your decision before commencing an assignment. Please indicate the basis on which you wish to engage with Kenton Black and then complete the relevant section below:

OPTION A - UMBRELLA COMPANY

Our preferred umbrella companies are listed on the final page of this agreement. We encourage you to select one of our preferred umbrella companies as we are satisfied that they are compliant and provide a high level of customer service. We will consider other umbrella companies provided that they

meet a minimum level of compliance and agree to our contractual terms. If we are unable to accept your preferred umbrella company, we will ask you to select an alternative provider.

On behalf of the above Limited Company, we agree to the attached Contract for Services (Contractors). We undertake to update Kenton Black immediately if there is any change to our tax or company status. We confirm that all monies paid to our Representatives in respect of the Contractor Services shall be treated as employment income and subject to deductions for tax and National Insurance.

Conduct Regulations Opt Out Notice:

Under the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003, all work-seekers are given automatic protection, guaranteeing them payment for their services even if the client is unwilling to pay the recruitment business for the time worked. This protection is often considered to be unhelpful where a limited company intends to operate outside of IR35. This is because the automatic protection removes much of the commercial risk associated with limited company contracting and if the limited company does not take commercial risk, they may be more likely to be deemed inside of IR35.If you intend to operate outside of IR35, you may wish to Opt Out of the Conduct Regulations. Either party may withdraw the Opt Out at any time and such withdrawal shall be effective from the end of any Assignment which is in progress at that time. To validly Opt Out, please ensure that both sections are signed, even if the same person signs both sections:

Representative Opt Out As one of the Representatives who will be performing the Contractor Services, I elect to Opt Out of the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003 under Regulation 32(9)

Whilst we will consider alternative suppliers, we will not engage any intermediary company which is based offshore, does not pass our due-diligence checks or which is unwilling to agree our standard contract for intermediary companies. If we are unwilling to engage your preferred intermediary company, we will ask you to (i) choose an alternative provider from this Approved Supplier List or (ii) engage with us on a different basis. Please note that the rate which we pay to an intermediary company will be more than the gross pay rate which you receive from the intermediary company. The rate which we pay is inclusive of any relevant statutory costs such as Employers National Insurance, the Apprenticeship Levy, pension contributions and your statutory paid holiday entitlement. These costs are deducted by the intermediary company (where applicable) together with their weekly fee, before calculating your gross pay. This document set out the information which we are required to give under Regulation 13 of the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003. In accordance with the Regulations: The provision of services to you by an intermediary company is not a work-finding service for which the Employment Agencies Act 1973 prohibits the charging of a fee; Any fees payable by you would be paid directly to the relevant intermediary company by being automatically deducted from any monies received in respect of your temporary assignment; and Unless otherwise agreed by you directly with the relevant intermediary company, no refunds or rebates are payable to you.
