This sounds like basically just having an employee but with different legal standing as a loophole or something.
Contracting is completely different, you generally define a set project to complete, do it, and get out.
In the UK there's something valled IR35 which means that in order for you to be considered an independent entity for tax purposes you should have full control over working hours, practices, etc.
- burntoutfire 5y agoIs the IR35 really having the intended effect? I've contracted in the UK pre-IR35, and I was essentially just an employee who paid much lower taxes (and was easier to fire, didn't have paid vacation etc.). I've met lots of people who contracted exactly the same way. Is it really different now?
