It is fully auditable and provides detailed management information, supporting our clients to monitor and achieve their budget and recruitment goals.

Clarity Direct Engagement & KPMG

Since 2014 Clarity Workforce Solutions has been supported by KPMG to help develop and implement our Direct Engagement (DE) solution for the healthcare sector. Through our alliance relationship with KPMG we developed this solution with appropriate consideration of the tax, pensions and employment law implications for Clarity and our customers. 

The Direct Engagement solution provides an opportunity for organisations to engage directly, usually on an employment contract, with temporary staff that are introduced by an agency.

This alternative to a typical ‘agency worker’ supply, allows for a VAT saving on the payment made to the temporary staff member. The key to the success of Clarity’s system is the way this is done in practice, with due care and consideration of the tax and practical implications and the support we receive from KPMG.

 In addition to the VAT efficiency generated by direct engagement, our solution also delivers immediate additional savings of up to 5% of temporary staffing spend through process improvements and greater transparency of rates and cost.
