PAYE Or Self employed?

tobytyke:
Hey guys I’ve been offered a tipper job and the guy said I can either go paye or self employed , the difference in pay is around 2500 pounds , I’ve never er been self employed at all and no idea of the pros and cons with it, I’m sure plenty are doing it hence the question.

Cheers if you can advise .

Are you buying your own truck?
No?
Are you starting an employment agency?
No?
Pretty much then, you are PAYE.

If in any doubt here is your starting point:
gov.uk/employment-status

And don`t worry about the person the person suggesting all of this to you: any taxes you evade, plus any penalties, will still be paid by you, not by them.

(If you can, find somewhere that isn`t trying it on with you)

PS Try this too
gov.uk/guidance/check-emplo … us-for-tax
Go to questionaire and fill it in honestly. Don`t just put in what you think it wants you to say!
