For decades umbrella companies have had no regulation.

This meant a lack of protection for workers and umbrella companies being non-compliant in their practices to avoid taxes.

But now SafeRec is a company looking to change all that, and in this episode I am joined by the CEO Sébastien Sauca. He has spent nearly a decade working in the recruitment industry, proving himself as a successful Sales Director.

But even with all of his success, Sebastien saw room for improvement in the field of payroll compliance in the UK. That's why he started SafeRec with Jule Marcoueille to bring an AI-Driven solution dedicated to protecting temporary workers, agencies and end-hirers from payroll non-compliance.

Listen as Sébastien shares his reasons for starting the company and what the company is doing to revolutionise the payroll industry.
