Default GMB Take On Uber And Win!

remarked:
All her paid hours had a holiday pay supplement.


As in she was paid extra every week (rolled up) to cover her "holiday"
provision?

And was expected to save that for her holiday?

That's not permissible.


Putting aside the rights and wrongs of Colin's wife's arrangements, it's
interesting that page talks about "workers", not "employees".

aiui the Uber case was to do with whether someone was a worker (which
includes people who are self-employed).

OTOH, the work(sic)-place pensions apparently only apply to people who
have a contract of employment [whether that's written or verbal] so
presumably doesn't apply to self-employed contractors.
