Cash in hand jobs
Anyone out there know any hard facts about this area ?
A little bit of background info,
My brother started a job a few months back for a taxi company, that pickup and drop off school kids from school and home. The hours can vary from 1 to 15 a week.
He gets paid £6 an hour, he has never had a pay slip or tax, N.I. taken off him. The employer has 7 drivers doing all the same thing and my brother says all the other drivers dont get a play slip either.
Is my brother going to get himself into hot water, is the employer being under handed ?

I've done mini-cabbing.
When I was working, it was done as follows:
EITHER the driver elected to have a small wage and 25% of every run, and he then got a pay slip, had NI deducted and paid tax PAYE,
OR he just got 33% of every run and paid his own stamp and tax............or was supposed to
Most of the casual drivers, ie: those like me that just did nights and weekends, did the latter.
The full-time drivers were on the former since illness on the latter made for zero pay

I think I should of chose my words more careful.

As he is doing less than 16 hrs and not earning over such an amount, The amount i dont know for this year the company wont have to pay tax for him but they will pay his n.i contributions.At the end of the year he will get his slip of tax office to say what he earned.
He is earning aroung £3'500 which is free from being taxed.

Isn't he supposed to have some kind of licence to do cab work - for example getting his car properly tested?
My neighbour did private taxi stuff (full time) but he got the third degree on getting his vehicle approved, much more than MOT stuff. Plus a health once over.

Ignoring the licensing issues.
Providing your brother doesn't get any sort of benefits or have another job, then they can pay him up to about £105/week cash in hand usually with a hand written payslip.
