Get More Out of Your Umbrella Company With Pulse Umbrella

MANCHESTER, England, June 16, 2010 - The umbrella company sector isn't exactly a thrill-a-minute industry;
contract worker solutions and tax legislation is what it is but one UK
umbrella company are looking to change all that through an exclusive VIP Club
packed with benefits for all members, including a new discretionary pension
scheme.

The scheme includes special terms negotiated for all employees who want
to save in the most tax-efficient way possible for their future. Unlike
similar initiatives from other companies, the new Pulse Umbrella
Discretionary Managed Group Pension Scheme is managed by 'Discretionary
Investment Managers' which means managers can move money around quickly to
take advantage of market conditions or to move to safer assets in times of
market turmoil.

This active management of money is very different from a basic
Stakeholder Pension Plan where your money is usually placed in a single
'benchmarked' fund where the manager has very limited scope to vary asset
allocation.

Pulse have also just announced their new Apple Childcare Vouchers
initiative, which offers contractors an easy, flexible and efficient
childcare voucher scheme, exempt from tax and National Insurance
contributions for the first GBP55 per week or GBP243 per month, leading to
considerable savings. If you're a parent, this could ultimately save you up
to GBP1,196 per annum on your childcare costs.

"At Pulse we strive to provide 'platinum' service to all of our
customers," said Chris Futcher, Managing Director of Pulse. "Each product or
benefit we offer must be best of breed and offer real and competitive value
to the consumer. The Pulse Money discretionary investment pension fund is a
compelling option for long term investment, without the requirement for a
large lump sum to make it worthwhile. Our customers are able to consolidate
several pension plans into one manageable scheme that can be actively managed
using Discretionary Managed Portfolio Service (DMPS) combined with Dynamic
Asset Allocation strategy, whilst still achieving diversification between the
main asset classes and numerous investment houses."

"In short, this is simply one of the most competitive pension options
around today, and exclusively available to Pulse customers at a fraction of
the usual investment requirement needed to access a product of this calibre,"
Chris added. "We are extremely excited to add this option to our ever growing
portfolio of exclusive benefits available to Pulse customers."

Yet the new pension and childcare schemes are merely the tip of the
iceberg when it comes to what the company has to offer. An endless list of
personal benefits helps set Pulse Umbrella apart from the rest; centred
around their unique VIP club, Your Pulse, contractors are also rewarded with
a range of exciting treats and discounts including tickets to events and
concerts, weekend breaks, adventure experiences savings on flights and
holidays, dining discounts at bars and restaurants and much more.

Unlike many companies, Pulse Umbrella employees are not charged a joining
fee and, should employees choose to leave Pulse for any reason, there are no
exit penalties and no minimum term. In other words, the employment service
alone is what keeps Pulse going and there are no unwelcome, hidden charges at
any stage of the process.

And of course, Pulse remain fully compliant with HMRC legislation and
work with to ensure that employees are repaid for your legitimate business
expenses.
