Could anyone please help me understand what this means? I really don't understand and don't want my husband to sign his life away!
The bit covered is the company name and 'I *husbands name*...

    The mandate refers to "a change in employment status"
    What was the old employment status?
    What is the new employment status?
    Does this change of employment status have any link to IR35?

    It's a completely new job with a new company. He's done the same work before (he's in construction) but not for this company.

    Is this employment on employed PAYE basis?

    A change in employment status suggests your husband is moving from being an employee to operating on a self employed basis or vice versa - or (given he's in construction) to the Construction Industry Scheme.
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!
