Universal Credit - Self Employed

Universal Credit - Self Employed was created by Joe2027
I mow a friend's lawn one hour per week. Does the DWP define someone who works for themselves as self-Employed? Whether that be the obvious, with a self employed business, or like me doing a friend's lawn 1 hour a week.

Hi Joe2027

It is the HMRC which makes that decision.
The DWP have their own rules regarding " Gainful Self Employment".
All earnings have to be reported under UC but you will not be considered to be Gainfully Self Employed.
