Self Employment

There are plenty of reasons to consider self-employment, such as:

• You can be your own boss
• work more flexibly
• You may have a higher salary

But there are downsides too, including:

• Lack of employee benefits such as sick pay and holiday pay
• Possible long  working hours
• Responsibility for your tax returns
• Unpredictable finances
