Some of us count ourselves as ‘self – employed’, others as an ‘employee’, but now we can be classed as a ‘Worker’.In a recent court case ( Yorkshire Window Company v Parkes ), though Parkes was described as ‘self – employed’ the court held that he was a ‘worker’, and therefore could claim to be paid statutory holiday pay under the Working Time Regulations.No mention of NI contributions, maybe the Inland Revenue will catch up with this one soon – Heads behind the parapet I think.
