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".
