the joke answers were funny but legally speaking they are employed if they are paid wages/salary and self employed if they are paid by a client who usually pays after receiving an invoice. people are not usually their own boss but set up their own company which then effectively becomes their boss and they are teh director of it.
if you were just looking for joke answers this is not it but if not hope this helpful and you can get more info from the uk based companieshouse website

The correct terminology is an employee not an employed worker!
Sorry to be such a *****..no harm intended!
By their time keeping!
An employee is usually a good time keeper, whereas the self employed tend to come and go as they please because mostly they are paid on a daily rate but the employee is paid by the hour not unless they are salaried.

HMRC can help you with this one.
Don't rely on what the contract says - the law allows them to 'look through' the contract at the actual situation.
HMRC have a booklet to help you to work it out - see link attached. Its called "Employed or Self Employed?" - probably just what you are looking for.
