Best thing to do is pop in and ask either a boss or an employee how it works.

Have to say it all sounds a bit strange??

It is the same with Hair dressing salons, all of the stylists are usually Self-Employed and then give a cut (large!) to the Salon.

Strange because they use the premises, equipment, etc.

This is all above board, the Tax man is happy with it and most Salon's run this way.

my wife is a hair dresser, she works part time 3 days a week on PAYE , yet others work on "rent a chair" the theory is, they only rent a chair, they dont use any of the salons others bits

Hairdressing salons are slightly different because the stylist is renting the space off the salon.

My son works as a fisherman for 4 months of the year. His wages 35k a year are paid into his account monthly. He is classed as a self employed share fisherman. They get round this by paying him a 15k bonus at Christmas and saying it's a share of the catch. The inland revenue except this.
I know 50k is a lot of dough for 4 months work but he fishes for mackerel in the north sea between November and February and they often make 1000 ton landings at a million a time. Dai

wasnt there a prog on these fishermen on discovery channel, 1 of the toughest jobs you can do, and you stand a very high chance of death whilst at work

Sorry, I missed this in the beginning!

If you are paying him 3 days then I guess he is working elsewhere on the other 2/3 days so therefore you can pay him as a subcontractor quite legally.

He does the work, invoices you, you pay him, job done!
