| Description: | The meaning of the phrase ‘the contract of employment’ in the title of the book has for decades engaged labour lawyers in endless debates as to its exact meaning. In spite of the incoherence concerning the denition of relationships that come within the scope of the ‘contract of employment’ it is generally accepted that there is a distinction between a person who falls within the scope of the contract of employment, namely an ‘employee’ and a worker who does not, namely an ‘independent contractor’. The changed world of work has resulted in the two concepts becoming even more blurred and intertwined and consequently it is sometimes almost impossible to distinguish the two concepts in a coherent manner. Although the reader will be informed as to the traditional common law tests for distinguishing between these two concepts, I offer no apologies for not indulging in the impossible task of providing more clarity as to the precise meaning of these terms. |
