Does anyone know the legal implications for this? Is this for your own business, or are you thinking of setting this up as a business in its own right putting packers in touch with people who need packing? Such outsourcing activities are really quite common. All packaging material etc can be delivered direct by whoever you buy it off, as can the stock.

Moreover insurance for the stock may well be covered by house insurance if properly declared. Depends on the policy and also your attitude to risk depending on the cost of the stock.

Regarding your actual question these would most probably be employees of yours and therefore would be on your PAYE so NI, tax etc would arise.

Unless they were self employed and you contracted the work out. Each worker could act as an agent. It can work — but it needs to be very well organised to begin with.

You might be luckier: Also, fiddly work that verges on manufacturing might be more easily done by one person each time than whoever is on duty at a warehouse.

The disadvantage is that the outworker may have trouble working quickly enough without equipment to earn a decent or even a minimum wage, particularly if a walk to the post office is involved. Also, Royal Mail will not offer the advantages that they offer warehouses such as collection, cheaper packetpost charged per sack, or even tracking.
