Self-employment
TopicHeard in 1 episode across 1 show since Sep 2026
Self-employment is the state of working for oneself rather than for an employer. It involves individuals earning their livelihood through independent business activities, trades, or professions rather than receiving a consistent salary or wage from an employer. Tax authorities and regulatory bodies typically identify self-employed individuals based on their business registration, profitability, and tax filing requirements.
