Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions
A Design Engineer contract based in Aberdeen is still assessed on facts, not postcode. Status paperwork should reflect Aberdeen attendance, hybrid days, and substitution. Inside IR35 Design Engineer pay in Aberdeen is usually umbrella or PAYE, while an outside SDS lets the Aberdeen contractor invoice through a limited company. Advertised Aberdeen rates follow a regional rate discount versus London, so city uplifts do not imply an outside finding. Travel between home and a Aberdeen office is rarely a substitute right. Check Aberdeen on-site expectations for this Design Engineer before you treat the SDS as settled.
