Support for the self-employed: 'Tozo, it is just a way for the assistance to come

One of the group financial support to the most affected by the coronacrisis into that of the self-employed. What makes them economically, so as to be vulnerable? And how can the crisis survive?

As of the 1.2 million, a Dutch self-employed people, it still is not big enough to have suggested the prime minister Eric Wiebes of Economic Affairs, and that they were "aware of the risk" by not employed to be like. He forgot that many people take the staff of platforms, such as Uber and Deliveroo - self-employed because their employees are unable to contract, was to forgive him. He arrived at his decision to return.

But for self-employed people who choose to do so, the note is a bit silly, is an economist, Ronald Mulder, "A pandemic is not really a risk for which you are self employed, you can be assured. If you get a something to eat or drink, and it's raining summer long, you say you're a ondernemersrisico. However, if the church says you need a year to be close, then I don't know if you can call it that."

" Support, it is a way to get into the flow of the assistance < / p> as to Why this group has financial risk, based on Recommendation of the lack of assistance: "Tozo (Temporary players contribute self-employed), it is not much more than an easy way to get into the flow of the aid." The payment is in fact an addition to the guaranteed minimum, in other words support level.

"what if you earned a monthly basis 3,500), and now have to live on the level of aid", says Mulder. "Often, your housing costs are already higher than the guaranteed minimum, so you see your money in home. In addition, there is a large part of the money to self-employed persons into an provision, so I can't just put on."

“Tozo was in the peanuts, but better than nothing.”

As of the Dam, the self-employed

As of the Dam, (name redacted), communications and the self-employed, earned in 2020 for approximately one-tenth of what he brings: "Tozo was in the peanuts, but better than nothing. At the beginning of the recession, I have had zero orders, everything was quiet. In the meantime, I do commissions, but it's nothing in comparison with the normal. Scary."

However, From the Dam to cheer, "Now that we have the vaccinations have been started, it will be in the next year, it is better to look like this. Until that time, I throw not the towel in the ring."

'will Take up to four years before we see the impact to the top of his < / p> Meanwhile, the election has been. The major parties want to be entrepreneurs, to support it. Thinking of Mulder and that this can result in a financial gain, is going to impact on self-employed people? "It seems to me to be a good time to get a good package for them, and for the next four years to create it. A lot of people think that we are three-quarters of the crisis and sit down, but I think it'll be a three-or four-year period before the economic hit to the top yet."

Jerry Helmers, the chairman of the INDEPENDENT Network of the Netherlands, is that self-employed people are always in their own hands to take it. "Forced or deliberate self-employed: if you are out of the crises to come, you need to consider marketing. Sell yourself."

“as A financial buffer to give a space for you to practice and improve.”

Jerry Helmers, INDEPENDENT Network, the Netherlands < / p> The three C's are a tool that can Helmers self-employed, wants to pass on: "Case study: reason with them what the problem is, in your business, a Causal: What is the relationship that caused the fault to occur, and the Commitment to you: that you have to show for it is better to get out of. If you have three steps you think of yourself in the discussion, please explain the basis for a solution to this."

According to the Helmers, many self-employed people, and the money that they earn as a reward. "But it's also a way for you to invest in better software, better service. In the growth of other words. I bagatelliseer anything, but it's going to make the right choices."

"As I said at the beginning of the crisis, and the self-employed who are already going out of business, but a couple of weeks ago is still at the studio." An example of a person who's not right for each other, find the Helmers. "As a financial buffer that will give you a space to practice and to improve it. COVID-19 is not: a company without a vision is not able to attack it.
