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