A freelancer is a person who undertakes to provide certain services to a company or corporation in return for payment without personal dependence, furthermore independently and free from restrictions on personal conduct. The work is essentially performed personally and without the use of own resources. The main difference between a freelance service contract and a genuine employment contract is that the freelancer can regulate the course of the activity independently and change it at any time, as well as be represented. In contrast to a contract for work, a freelance service contract requires a specific work performance and not a "work". Typical protective provisions and rights associated with an employment contract (e.g. 5 weeks' paid minimum leave, continued payment of remuneration in the event of illness, etc.) do not apply to a freelance service contract.
 

A freelance service contract is characterized by the following features:

  • Obligation to provide services on the basis of a freelance service contract
  • Essentially personal provision of services
  • No significant own resources
  • Freelance employees can generally be represented
  • No commitment to working hours and place of work
  • No involvement in the organizational process
  • Contract duration for a definite or indefinite period
  • Social insurance only if no other insurance exists due to this activity
