IF I sign a contract of employment then I know who I am working for and on what grounds.

If I sign a contract as an a person who has put a price in for a specific, limited time job (erecting a building or whatever) I know what I will get providing I meet the terms of that agreement as I would have put a price in according to the terms and requirements.

Uber drivers have just won a case where they are employees. Black cabs as per regulations have to be self-employed and enjoy benefits that other "taxi firms" do not have.

Anything else Arthur?
