Concern #414 - UC staff misunderstanding definition of self-employment

Project:
369 - OPEN DWP - Social Benefits

Description:
DWP rules define self-employment as actively trading or earning, but UC frontline staff treat company directors as automatically self-employed.

Desired Outcome:
Ensure staff training to correctly apply UC Regulation 64 and HMRC’s definition of 'trading'.

What Could Go Wrong:
UC may impose Minimum Income Floor or inappropriate commitments on non-trading individuals.

Current Situation:
Wade’s journal message incorrectly stated that being a director = self-employed.

Action Strategy:
Provide regulatory references at appointment, escalate to senior coach if necessary.
