I'm self employed but as I haven't been bringing that much in over the past few months, I applied for some part time roles so that I've got a set amount coming in each week and still have time to build my business. I've just been offered a role that's 15 hours per week at min wage. It's initially temporary for three months with the possibility of being extended or made permanent after that and it's a very small company - less than 5 people.
They know I'm SE and are leaving it up to me whether I work there as self employed and invoice them for my hours, or I'm employed by them. A friend of mine pointed out that if I'm employed by them rather than self employed I might get sick pay and holiday pay but I'm not sure of the situation around sick and holiday pay with regards to very small companies of that size, especially given that the role is temporary in the first instance. I'd really appreciate any advice about which way forward would be best.
