The Above rates apply only to those guides who conform to the description of "Worker" as viewed by the office of Fair Trading in respect of the Restrictive Trade Practices Act 1976. Guides falling into the "non-worker" category must negotiate fees individually. With reference to the Guild of Registered Tourist Guide members: a "worker" is any Guide who works under a contract personally to execute any work or labour, i.e. who is a sole trader and the subject matter of whose contract, subject only to very minor exceptions, will be executed by that Guide personally. A "non-worker" is any Guide who accepts work in order to refer it to another Guide (and who will not carry out the work himself). The Guide may be acting as an individual, an officer of a company, a partner in a partnership, or be acting through another business vehicle and as such will not be a "worker".
