For End Clients
See the whole chain - not just the supplier at the top of it.
Fortis gives end clients a single view of the agencies, umbrella companies, workers, payroll records and JSL-critical payments operating across their contingent labour supply chain.
Where responsibility sits
Why end-client oversight matters
An end client may be the relevant party where it contracts directly with an umbrella company and in other circumstances identified by the legislation and HMRC guidance. Even where an agency is the relevant party, payroll failures can still create operational disruption, worker harm, reputational damage and questions about supply-chain governance.
One portal
One view of every assignment
The Fortis client portal connects each worker and assignment to the supplying agency, the employing umbrella, the payroll record and the related JSL transaction. Current and historic records can be reviewed without assembling evidence from separate suppliers after an issue arises.
- Supplying agency and contractual tier
- Umbrella employer and approval status
- Worker and assignment record
- Payroll and RTI reconciliation status
- PAYE/NIC payment and reference evidence
- Outstanding exceptions and remedial action

Reporting
Reporting for boards and compliance teams
Dashboards and exportable reports allow compliance teams to focus on unresolved risk, rather than repeatedly requesting confirmation from every party. Views can be structured by business unit, agency, umbrella, pay period and exception type.

Boundaries
Control without taking over payroll
The umbrella remains the employer and the agency continues to manage its commercial relationship. Fortis adds a common evidence and control layer so the relevant organisations can see whether each stage has been completed and whether the payment position has been reconciled.
