Employee, worker or freelance? Contract types in the voluntary sector

Join SCVO's HR service in a session focusing on employment status. We'll discuss what it means to be an employee, a worker and a freelancer, when organisations might want to hire each employment type, as well as what to do if you think someone working for you is under the wrong working arrangements.

By the end of the session you will be able to:

• Confidently identify what employment type your staff are
• Know the appropriate circumstances for hiring each employment type
• Understand what statutory rights each employment type has
• Be aware of how the new Employment Rights Bill will affect each employment type

Do you know the difference between an employee, a worker and a freelancer? Do you know why it matters? Join SCVO's HR team in this session to answer these questions and more.

We'll talk about when a freelancer might actually be an employee, whether zero-hours contracts are ever appropriate to use, and why it's important to know the difference.

There will also be time for a Q&A to cover your questions.

This webinar is aimed at anyone who contracts other people to do work for their organisation, including leaders, line managers, board members and trustees.
