For the employment intermediaries travel expense provisions to apply, 2 basic conditions [ESM5530] must both be met. The first of the basic conditions is that an individual 바카라 사이트˜the worker바카라 사이트™ 바카라 사이트˜personally provides services (which are not excluded services) to another person (the client)바카라 사이트™ (section 339A (1)(a) ITEPA).

In this context, a worker is personally providing services when they are doing work for the client.

Excluded services

This basic condition of personally providing services isn바카라 사이트™t met if the worker바카라 사이트™s services are provided wholly in the client바카라 사이트™s own home.

Example - excluded services

Paul works away from home during the week only returning at weekends. As he is away so much he decides to get help with his domestic chores. During the summer he engages a gardener, George.

George works via his own PSC which is subject to the intermediaries legislation. Despite this, George isn바카라 사이트™t covered by the new legislation as he바카라 사이트™s providing his services in Paul바카라 사이트™s own home.
