If you’re working for financial reward or gain, you can count your hours of work in the work test. You can do this even if the business doesn’t run at a profit.
This includes all of the following:
- providing goods and services for hire or reward
- carrying on a business, including as a partnership or enterprise
- working for a trust operating as a business.
If you get Parental Leave Pay and you’re self-employed, we’ll make the payments to you.
