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