Campaigns Overview

The PCG has established itself as the only body that can truly claim to represent the interests of independent contractors. Formed in response to the unpopular IR35 legislation, the PCG is now an official trade body representing the interests of contractors on a variety of subjects.

The PCG has lobbied the relevant Government departments and presented the contractor’s point of view for all important issues including the E-Commerce regulation, the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Bill (RIP), the new Agency Regulations and of course the finance bill.

We have also set up specialist groups where appropriate. For example, the Aberdeen Working Party was set up to act on behalf of our Members in the Oil & Gas sector with the aim of improving working practices. The group has forged strong links with the important multinational players.
