About Self-employed
Self-employed refers to individuals who work for themselves rather than for an employer. These individuals, also known as independent contractors, freelancers, or sole proprietors, earn income through conducting their own business, trade, or profession. Self-employed individuals are responsible for their own business operations, including acquiring clients, managing finances, paying taxes, and handling all business-related decisions. Self-employment encompasses a wide range of professions and industries, from skilled trades and professional services to creative work and consulting. These individuals typically must handle their own tax obligations, including self-employment tax, and are responsible for their own benefits such as health insurance and retirement planning. In many countries, self-employed individuals must register their business activities with relevant government authorities and comply with applicable regulations. They may operate as sole proprietors, limited liability companies (LLCs), or other business structures depending on their needs and local laws. The rise of the gig economy and digital platforms has led to an increase in self-employment opportunities, allowing individuals to work independently and often remotely. Self-employment offers flexibility in work arrangements and the potential for higher earnings, but also comes with increased responsibilities and risks compared to traditional employment.
