FREELANCE

WORK RELEASE (FREELANCE)

Freelance (Worker Disconnect, by definition wikipedia ) : workers with a particular profession without a long-term commitment to the organization (company)
or rather the person or institution that works without being influenced by time, certain terms and conditions.
definition is still not able to describe with the obvious question: "Actually, anyone who can be called as a freelancer ? " . Maybe we have a different understanding on this matter, because it is useful to describe the types of freelancers that we meet, so we are not stuck in the area of gray because they do not know exactly where to position freelancer . Well let's find the answer based on my own experience. To make it easier to answer the question, I want to classify freelancer into several types as follows:

1. Freelancer Part Time

   Is a freelancer part time, could be a freelance employee is full-time at a particular company, the office, private employee, or perhaps a civil servant (PNS). Freelance type has a fixed time, for example, 8 hours / day at the office (office hours ). Outside of business hours (outside the office) they had a side job as a freelancer . It may be granted permission or not from the office.

2. Freelancer Remote Worker

   Are people who are working remotely, they are hired by a particular company (local or foreign) to be an employee / employee or team without the need to come to the office, for example, his office is in Africa or in London or in Jakarta, while he lived in Malang. Everyday freelancer this type can do office work at home, they communicate with their office via the internet, for example through e-mail, ym, skype , etc. The results of the work in the form of file on upload via ftp, dropbox, etc.. Some of them can get facilities such as internet access, to computer equipment from the office.

3. Freelancer Single Fighter

   Is a fulltime freelancer, freelancer who is out of the office, freelancers are not bound by office hours, because it is not an employee of a particular company or an employee. They become employees for themselves, they look for their own projects, looking for their own clients, do the job themselves, set their own finances, organize their own working hours, set their own work, to buy equipment of their own work, almost everything is handled in-house. But we know a freelancer this type has its limits, how many childbearing age to be able to work alone? And to what extent he can do manage work and finance and communication with the client itself?

4. Freelancer Partner

Product was out of work from outside clients, the product is called the startup . Freelancer of this type can be still working on the projects of clients but they also have their own projects in accordance with the potential and passion they. Expected startup in the long run will be a passive income , income generation outside of the client's project.
