Anysize is a shared-cost "umbrella"
business for contract employees in Australia.
Anysize takes the paperwork grunt-work out of
providing contract professional services in Information Technology
& Services, Engineering, Drafting, or any other hourly or project
oriented service delivery. That frees you to do what you do best. Why fill
in government and banking forms with time that you would rather work for clients?
Members operate independently but may also work with others to bid and work on
larger projects. Many of our members find working on joint
projects a worthwhile option
but there is no expectation that members will participate in joint
projects
unless they are interested.
Anysize Services
Anysize services include:
- Invoicing, collections and corporate banking done on your behalf.
- Payroll or other re-imbursement to you via Electronic Funds
Transfer or cheque (your choice).
- Standard business insurances: Workers Compensation, Public
Liability, and where needed: Professional Indemnity and Income
Protection.
- Compliance with Commonwealth and state legislation for
contracting businesses, in particular this includes Commonwealth and
state legislation on employment, taxation and corporations laws.
- Arrangements such as sub-contracting, specific superannuation
requirements, novated leasing, fringe-benefits packaging can be
organised — please discuss your requirements with the coordinator.
- Anysize is not an agency and does not have the infrastructure to
find jobs for contractors, that is one reason why it costs less than
using an agency. However, members do occasionally advise the
coordinator about opportunities which may be of interest to potential
members - this information is passed on at no charge.
- In short, Anysize is a shared-cost operating infrastructure — the
basic services listed above are charged at $2 per hour billed out or 4%
of billing (usually whichever is lower but depending on rate, hours
worked and billing frequency).
Essential policies
Anysize operates according the following policies:
- Encourages you to agree directly with your clients on your own
client billing rates and terms, but will assist in these negotiations
if you wish.
- Operates under a "transparent" basis that is, we disclose to
members the rate paid by their client and exactly how all of that money
is distributed in the form of payroll, superannuation, taxes,
insurance, administrative overhead, etc. The
Anysize coordinator can provide worked examples.
- Places no restrictions on your departure - we do not use
non-competition clauses.
- Places no restrictions on contracting directly or becoming
employed by a
client in the future or concurrently with Anysize membership.
- Makes no claims on your intellectual property, but will support
your IP arrangements with your client(s).
