Futurelink PEO Solution
Our comprehensive services provide a range of benefits that empower both clients and contractors.
What is PEO?
A Professional Employer Organisation (PEO) solution is a strategic co-employment partnership where a specialised provider like Futurelink Group assumes responsibility for all employment-related tasks. Our PEO solution offers a fully compliant payroll option that delivers complete PAYE benefits to workers, including tax deductions at source, National Insurance management, and statutory entitlements.
Unlike traditional umbrella services or in-house payroll, our PEO solution shifts employment costs to the agency or end client, eliminating any deductions from workers’ pay beyond standard tax and National Insurance. This means workers retain their full contracted rate while gaining access to Fortune 500-level benefits. Businesses benefit from streamlined administration, reduced compliance risks, and significant cost savings – often up to 20% on overheads.
Our PEO solution is ideal for contractors who value professional independence alongside robust support. We handle everything from payroll processing to worker queries on pensions, statutory payments, and more, allowing you to concentrate on productivity and business expansion.
How Our PEO Solution Works
The Futurelink PEO solution operates on a simple yet powerful co-employment model:
- Workers receive a compliant Contract of Employment directly with Futurelink Group.
- We manage all payroll, tax, National Insurance, pensions, holiday accrual, and statutory payments.
- Agencies or end clients pay a transparent fee that covers employment costs – no hidden charges or deductions from workers.
- Payments are processed daily with same-day availability, ensuring workers get paid quickly and accurately.
In contrast to standard PAYE models, where workers bear employment costs on top of taxes, our PEO solution ensures agencies cover these expenses. Workers enjoy identical net pay to in-house employees, plus full employment rights, without any uplift penalties or year-end tax surprises.
This PEO solution is fully IR35-compliant, positioning workers inside IR35 with genuine employment status for maximum security and benefits.

Other than income tax and National Insurance, which will vary depending on your level of weekly or monthly income, there will be no other deductions to your income. The client/agency pays a small fee for us to manage your payments.
Yes, you are. This is determined by a proportion of your gross payment (usually 12.07%), which can be held back by us upon request. Otherwise, it is usually paid alongside your regular pay.
