Registering as self employed beauty therapist

[Zoelouisefarmer]

Sorry but no one answered this one ...

That's so wrong, you & your employers could get into serious trouble with the Tax office.
So many employers are trying this.
You can only be truly self employed if you are booking your own clients in and you receive the money for the whole treatment, and picking your own hours of work, uniform etc etc ... if it's time you get paid for you should be employed by the company or at the very least if its only occasional days you are covering you should be invoicing the company to get paid - as the tax office could ask you for your records of this as its your tax bill.

Do if you go into work and if there's only 3 clients booked in but they are spread across the day / you are at work 7 hrs but get paid 3 ???? Is that correct ... ??
If this is correct I'd speak to your employer about either being an employee or try to find another salon which will employ you correctly, is it just you or are there others 'self employed' who work there.
Some small business don't want to pay there accountants for doing their payroll as it increases their costs.

(If your unsure - speak to citizens advice, an accountant or even the tax office or look at the net for more info / this is just one site iv quickly found for you.
