"more like a list of every reason why digging cant possibly be a self employed position."
No, it is a list of reasons why people might say you are self employed, but in reality (to the Tax man) are not...
Protects both employers and employees (and self employed)
I have been self employed to one degree for nearly 15 years ... sometimes with an employed position as well.
60 quid in the and mate.. no questions, does not cut it with a Tax man...
150, 200 quid, that might help to cover all the other things you need... being self employed is not as bad as you think... but it does require effort, book keeping, and a hard look at benefits. I find it suits me... but remember, when I have a holiday... nobody pays, when I am off sick.. nobody pays... When I need tools... I have to supply them... each car journey, each train, every piece of workware... etc... my insurance (Towergate) my NI contributions... in fact... I have a Tax bill coming in.. so I have to have budgeted...
If anybody knows of companies that use the ... you are self employed wheeze... let me know... they are putting themselves and the person at risk from hefty tax trouble.
