Freelancer have a diverse kind of work. We started this survey by asking respondents, what kind of work they are doing freelancers. Here it is our findings:
Freelancer is a job that is not tied to office hours. Attendance at workplace is not a must. This becomes quite interesting for us to ask respondents about their working hours as a freelancer. The findings we got, 42.39% of respondents said they have less than 10 hours in a week. This is not surprising because 66.43% of respondents are part-time freelancers.
Then we were wondering how many respondents who are pure a freelancer, do not have another job, how many respondents who had been work as employees, and how many respondents who currently have a job in the office but also a freelancer. It turns out most are those respondents who had been an employee. Our question then continues, what is the reason they are no longer being an employee and turned freelancer. We also got the answer that 52.13% of respondents said they wanted to have more personal time. As for the respondents who answered had never been an employee, we also asked their reasons. And 51.92% of the respondents said they haven’t had the opportunity to be employees, hence they become a freelancer.
We also asked why respondents part-time freelancers, why they become a freelancer when working as an employee. Most respondents stated being a freelancer to spend leisure time, and not a few respondents said that the salary as an employee is not enough.
Do they feel have more time for themself by freelancing? 84.9% of respondents said yes
We put an end to this survey by asking to respondents with any negative and positive became a freelancer, whether they are happy. And almost all respondents said happy!
