Dr. Juliet McMahon:

That would be a person who provides personal service to one employer. The danger is if that intermediate category is created and that definition is used to bring in a category of workers, as happened in the UK, we could create additional problems. Many researchers and legal experts in the UK, such as Keith Ewing and Simon Deacon, and Friedman, have argued that we should get rid of the definition of "employee" that exists now and bring in the definition that has been used in ECJ cases relating to the personal service nexus. That is a wider debate.
