The observation of Lord Wright, of Denning, L. J., and of the judges of the Supreme Court in the U. S. A. suggest that the fundamental test to be applied is this :"Is the person who has engaged himself to perform these services performing them as a person in business of his own account?". If the answer to that question is "yes", then the contract is a contract for services. If the answer is "no" then the contract is a contract of service. 2, record 1, English, - contract%20for%20services
