Could HMRC’s Crackdown Land Your Security Business in Trouble?

If you’re in the UK security sector, 3rd August 2025 isn’t just another deadline it’s the day HMRC enforcement could turn non-compliance into a legal nightmare for your business. Misclassification of subcontractors and incomplete PAYE compliance is more than an administrative headache; it can trigger significant financial penalties, ruin your business reputation, and even lead to criminal charges against directors. HMRC has explicitly stated their intention to enforce regulations more stringently than ever before.
