But a self employed painter is self employed - whereas the legal Q is are these "gig" economy really self employed.
The self employed painter could send some one else to do the work for example - I know employment law is a trickily area for civilians (ie non hr specialist and lawyers) to get there head around
- jstanley 9y agoA self-employed painter could not send someone else to do the work (without the client's consent) if he was personally contracted to do it. There's no contradiction there.
- walshemj 9y agoIf you "personally contract" with some one you are their employer. You might hire Joe Blogs And Son's to do a painting job but it does not mean Joe Blogs does the work personaly it might be his son or he may "get a lad in" to do some of the work
- jstanley 9y agoIf you hire me to do some freelancing for you, you're hiring me, but that doesn't make me your employee.
