Ok, so my hubby is planning leaving his job as a joiner on a construction site to work on another site, he is a self employed joiner and is contracted through companies to put up kit houses, does he need to give full 2 weeks notice if he is self employed?

It should say in his contract on how much notice he needs to provide in order to terminate the contract.

It depends on what the contract he has with the company says.

He is a contractor. That means there is a contract and he needs to abide by the terms of that contract or risk getting sued.

2 weeks' notice is never required. It's a courtesy, like the 15% tip. You don't have to leave any tip and you don't have to give any notice.

Usually his contract would specify those terms. Without any written terms indicating notice, it would be more of a courtesy to offer notice.
