Bogus self-employment costing exchequer '€1bn per year', activist tells Oireachtas committee

An Oireachtas committee has heard that bogus self-employment is rife across industries in Ireland, representing a “massive” problem.

The Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection heard that in the case of a worker wrongfully deemed to be in self-employment it is “impossible” for the worker to have that decision overturned.
