Am i self employed? I feel i am employed but missing holiday pay (england)
Location: England
So, i have been working for a company since i was 14, and i am almost 18 now. When i first signed the document they sent me to begin working it classified me as a “self employed sole trader” however im not sure how much that really represents my position. Ive only really spoken to chatgpt about this (sorry) so i will just relay what it said so i can get this straightened out
Things it said were wrong about me being self employed
I have set hours i need to work
If i cant work those hours its heavily implied/im told i NEED to find cover
I wear set uniform and have participated in training for the company
I get paid hourly and send and invoice at the end of the month
I have a “boss not a client”
Im just wondering that if the above classifies me technically as a worker and not self employed and if i could claim for missed holiday pay i wasn’t offered/aware of.
I would really appreciate any guidance on next steps
If anyone has any questions i could answer that could help clear everything up that would be greatly appreciated
