Nowadays, many people choose to be self-employed, rather than to work for a company or oganisation. Why might be the case? What could be the disadvantages of being self-employed?

There is an increasing number of people who choose to be self-employed

instead

of working for a company or an institution. In

this

essay, I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of being self-employed. On one hand, people choose to

work

remotely at home as freelancers which enables them to do business without any company rules or restrictions and enjoy working at any time with a flexible schedule for tasks.

Furthermore

, freelancers can generate more

income

than employees who

work

for companies by doing various business activities on the Internet.

For instance

, there are popular sites for freelancers like, Fiverr, Linked and Upwork. In my opinion,

this

type of

work

is more flexible with more cash generating.

On the other hand

, there are people who

work

for companies and organizations which offer them fixed salaries and stable

income

at the end

of each month.

In addition

, they have stable insurance and compensation plans to cover them after retirement.

Moreover

, they have a healthy environment where they can meet and contact their colleagues and create teamwork which improves the communication between the employees.

To sum up

, being self-employes has two sides,

Although

, It can be positive in terms of enjoying the free time and a flexible timetable and generating more

income

,

otherwise

, it has a negative side in terms of it can't be considered a job that a stable

income

and free of risk. In my opinion, I prefer to

work

on both so I can have a stable

income

and be free to do any business I want like a freelancer.
