Ad hoc apprentice

[billy110]

Hi all, like others on this forum I am setting up on my own. When I need an extra pair of hands in the form of a labourer/apprentice, can this be done on an ad hoc basis ie he is effectively self employed, invoices me for services rendered Pays his own NI etc. As long as all my insurances are in place is this ok? Sorry if it's a lame question, never had to deal with this before! Thanks in advance!

wouldnt worry about it, either pay him cash in hand or mark him down as casual labour costs and let him worry about his side

Hi
Whereabouts are you? I'm CIS registered in West Midlands...Level 3 Improver. I understand you'd have to do CIS Scheme registration & pay my tax on that basis, but could always do cash if you are anywhere near...
Cheers, best of luck
