The worker status of partners, members of a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) and other atypical workers (such as zero-hours contracts)has created headlines in recent years.

Several high-profile cases made it to the highest courts in the land to decide who is self-employed, who is an employee and who is a worker.

The law on this area is complex and assigning a status to your employment affects your working rights and your right to certain benefits such as holiday pay and the statutory minimum wage.
