    For end clients who refuse to accept risk in their supply chain Every temporary worker in your organisation is a compliance responsibility. But when the umbrella company is chosen by a recruitment agency, how do you know if they're playing by the rules? SafeRec gives you back control. With real-time forensic auditing, verified HMRC data, and transparent certification, SafeRec empowers end clients to gain complete assurance — and enforce compliance down the chain.

    The Challenge

    The Hidden Risk in Your Labour Supply Chain

    Even if you don't directly choose who pays the worker, you're still accountable for what the agency and/or the umbrella company do.

    Rogue payroll practices — from tax avoidance to payslip manipulation — can expose you to:

    • HMRC scrutiny and financial liability
    • Reputational damage
    • Supply chain disruption
    • Ethical and legal non-compliance
    Ignorance is no defence. Under legislation like the Criminal Finances Act 2017, end clients are expected to demonstrate "reasonable prevention procedures" against tax evasion in their supply chain.
