I am studying for my masters/cipd level 7 and with working full time and having 2 young children I find it very difficult to read. I had 24 hours to read up on employment status, specifically issues surrounding the gig economy and this gave me a really really good understanding in less than half an hour!! thank you so much. I'm listening to all of your podcasts ad hoc whilst cooking the dinner, driving to work, even bathing the kids.

so helpful!!
