Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions

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