DearJessie
Thisisaletter to give you some advises base on analyzing your situation and give you
some suggestion to improve this knowledge for you
Fisty Twould talk about difference between a contract of service (employed) and a
contractfor service (selfemployed),
A contract of service (employed): when a taxpayer works as an employee and is in
he service of an employer In other words, you personally work under the control of
Someone and do not run the risks of having a business yourself_ Then irs employers
responsibility to deduct tax && NICS from your pay under PAYE and pay it to the
Revenue,
A contract for service (self-employed): when you work as a selfemployed who is
providing services to a client In other words,you are in business on your own
account and bear the responsibility for the success or failure of that business, Then
you are responsible for your own tax and NICs to the Revenue,
Secondly, There areanumber of additional criteria to determine whether the you were
employed or not
1,Control: The more control you have to decide when where and how the work is
done, the more likely you will be considered selfemployed, The less, the more
Tikely to be regarded as employed, Basic you situation, you can accept or reject
lient appointments as you chooses, this prove you have high degree of control of
yourjob,it means you are aselfemployee person in the company
2,Equipment: ffyou are required to provide some or all of the equipment needed to
do the work you are more likely to be considered self-employed. Because you
have always provided your own equipment and material, so T think you are a
Selfemployee
3,Finaneial risks: You are responsible for keeping your own diary It means you
hold the financial risk for yourself The more that you bear the financial risk in the
works the more likely to be considered as selfemployed
4,Holidays and sickness: In the contract ifa person is not paid for absence and the
presence of benefits, such as paid leave, membership of firms pension, had not
Tight to enjoy it hefshe must be a selfemployer The company not paid you any
holiday pay or sick pay so Tthink you are aself-employee,
5 Exelusivity: If a person carries out duties for a single client He is more likely
considered to be employed rather than a person who carries out duties for a
number of clients (selfemployed), On the other hand,a person engaged on a
Shortterm contract may be regarded as a casual employee, Basic this point you
don't need accept further work from your company So I think you are a
Selfemployee
6 Work performance and ceorreetion; IT a person is required to take foll
responsibility for the quality of work done and/or to carry out remedial work in his
own time and at his own cost he is more likely considered to be self-employed
An employee will normally be paid for any time required to make corrections to
his work You are responsible for keeping your own diary,
Finally you can accept or reject client appointments as you choose,which is
appropriate for the exclusivity criteria In all you are in accordance with these criteria,
therefore Tstrongly think that you are selfemployed
