"I have been fired because I was working remotely and UK law doesn’t allow to do that so easily any more."
Can someone give a brief summary why is this so? Thanks!
Since the 6th April 2013, a new PAYE system is in place. Any employee need to have a valid UK address to be able to declare taxes on a monthly basis.
And how about employees from other EU countries? Also, does this address has to be an actual place of residence or a virtual address or P.O. Box would suffice?
I am from a EU country and that didn't help. That's explicitely written in the HR website the address shouldn't be a business address but you might find a way to have a kind of fake one if your employer agree. In my situation, it seem the company didn't want to be border line. My situation might not be the general case as I used to work remotely while traveling around Europe
