Under this method, the worker or subcontractor is employed under a contract of employment with CHAPS, and CHAPS deducts the necessary PAYE and national insurance contributions and pays the worker a salary. Furthermore, the workers are entitled to statutory employment rights and other benefits like CHAPS employee perks. This is the most straightforward way of operating for CIS workers.
