“In determining whether a person who had carried out work for a company was its employee within the meaning of s 230 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, if the document purporting to retain the services of a person did not represent the true relationship of the parties the employment tribunal was entitled to hold that the document had been designed to deceive others and sham so as to assume jurisdiction to determine a claim for unfair dismissal.”
