Becoming self-employed. Key factors.

Finally: become your own boss

Dream of becoming self-employed? If so, take a close look at the pros and cons and stay realistic. Being self-employed can come with a lot of freedom, but also with a lot of responsibility. In addition to working as a sole trader, setting up a business or company is also a form of self-employment. However, when it comes to the law, there are some major differences. To name just two, as a self-employed sole trader, you are not required to take out accident insurance or pay into a pension fund, both of which are required if you set up a business or company.
