Abstract

"Recent years have seen a growing interest in false self-employment and in legal guides on how to avoid false self-employment in Germany. The legal uncertainty is striking: What are typical characteristics of false self-employment? How many individuals work as false self-employed? Who are the false self-employed workers? A recent study of the IAB answers these questions by employing two different legal concepts. First, the study applies a law concept relying on prevailing case law in Germany focusing on personal dependence. Second, the study applies a law concept that extends the first concept by focusing additionally on chances and risks of self-employed work." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
