The IDS Employment Law Handbook Employment Status is a brand-new publication that examines the statutory definitions of ‘employee’ and ‘worker’ status, and the ever-expanding body of case law in this area. It explores the tests used by the courts to determine an individual’s employment status, outlines the different statutory protections that attach to the existing categories of employee and worker, and discusses the Labour Government’s proposals for reform. It also deals with special categories of worker, such as casual and agency workers, apprentices, office holders, partners and the self-employed.
