Only if you are an EEA citizen can it make any difference.

If you are contracting, what vehicle are you intending to use? Self employment? rofessional Services Company/ Ltd? Umbrella company? P

For all but the last one your employment status doesn't change irrespective of if you are in or out of contract as your "business" is still running as you look for new contracts etc.
