UBER drivers deemed to be employees

[Top Cats Hat]

Have they changed the tax rules then?

 

I am self employed and do most of my work for 6 or seven employers. However I have colleagues who have been forced to go on PAYE because although self employed, they work exclusively for one employer.

 

In fact I have heard of people putting in fake invoices (and even paying tax on the income from them) into their tax returns, just so as the revenue don't class them as working exclusively for one employer.

Looks like I was right.

 

Christa Ackroyd formerly of Look North has been deemed by the revenue to have been an employee of the the BBC and not a self employed sub-contractor.

 

£400K outstanding in unpaid tax!
