So our accountant told us the other day that we are not allowed to employ anybody on a self employed basis.
Apparently this is because any self employed worker would be using our gear/vehicles and technically be working under our instruction meaning the only way we can employ anyone is on the books PAYE?
Apparently for someone to be classed as self employed they must work entirely on their own steam with their own tools/materials and transportation?
Surely this is bollox? Anyone know the ins and out of this?
