It’s a student job. Only 3 hours a week, and i’m gone (already wow) from the uk in 3 months and hte pay is around 7.5 pound an hour. The money from the events go to the people in the community in need. But I am a little uncertain about that as they are not working with an association specifically (uncertain?)
Now there is no contract, I’m meeting the guy at Asda tomorrow where he’ll give me the flyers and the pay is in cash.Which means to me if I’m not wrong that there won’t be any contract? So if I don’t get paid for my work, or I learn anything shady about them (I checked already, no red flargs except their major event last year didn’t do so good), I can just leave right?
Oh I agree with you, I started recording the call when I got a weird vibe but got no sound out of it.Meeting at an Asda is because it’s halfway between each of us, and seeing how tiny the company is, I think they just wont bother with contracts. At the Asda he will give me the flyers, so, I don’t have to print them myself with my money
Are you between 18 and 20. If you are 21 or over. 7.50 is legally way to low. But almost exactly minimum wage for 18 to 20. Do not accept below due to no contract. It makes no difference.
Record everything. Even if its self written notes about hour conversations and promises. Ensure you have some form of time sheet. Even if you write your own and give him a copy.
No contract is likely a way to evade paying the employer share of NI and avoid paying your share of taxes. Technically you would be working as a sole trader. So technically would have to pay it yourself. If he tells you your a sole trader/contractor. He is avoiding his NI not evading. Ie legally. But it means you pay more. Assuming you follow the rules.
Not to complex if you decide to do it. Gov sites give lots of guidance. But you want much more then min wage.
Odds are high. He is actually in the same situation and working under the table.
i am over 21 so i’ll keep that in mind. Recorded audio of us meeting, pay will be cash or bank transfer every two weeks, I’ll ask for bank transfers to have a proof. He wants us to send a picture of where we give the flyers and to send him from when to when we are working. I’ll be doing this for about 3 months max if everything goes right so I should be gaining around 300 pounds max in total, I think I don’t need to pay taxes for this little?
