PayStream's umbrella company is fully FCSA Accredited and is the preferred choice for thousands of contractors in the UK. In order to obtain FCSA membership, umbrella companies need to be independently reviewed by top industry experts in order to demonstrate the highest standard of compliance. This process means that the umbrella company has to routinely prove they operate compliantly with HMRC rules and regulations.
We provide full employment rights, access to a workplace pension, and ensure that PAYE and NI contributions are paid accurately and on time to HMRC.
Our quick, easy and reliable approach to customer service is just one of the reasons why thousands of contractors rate us excellent on Trustpilot and Google.
