Worker Status
The issue of worker status is now one that dominates the employment tribunal listings and the press following numerous gig economy cases including the now famous Uber judgment. This intermediary status (not employment and not self-employed) is one that is likely to continue to dominate the tribunals in the years to come as well. At Chartergates, we understand the complexities of worker status and offer a comprehensive approach to dealing with worker status issues.
Specialist and Experienced Advice
With many of the most important employment rights available to workers, even though they do not qualify as employees, the ability to categorise individuals correctly with regards to worker status is crucial. At Chartergates we specialise in this area but more than this, we have significant experience in advising on worker status and representing clients in the tribunals on worker status, long before the gig economy became a ‘hot topic’ for others.
Proactive Measures for Your Protection
Don’t wait for that Employment Tribunal claim to land on your doorstep. Now is the time to take proactive steps to protect your business. The key lies in the contract you establish with subcontractors and how you agree them. Without meticulously drafted terms and conditions as well as a thorough understanding of your business you may be susceptible to challenges in the Employment Tribunal. Chartergates offers detailed drafting services to fortify your position and ensure resilience in the face of employment status challenges.
