We are a pure remote company but Tax/employment-law is for us the biggest issue. Or to be more precise, it's the biggest issue for potential co-workers. We find that people are super interested in us, but when we tell them they have to do their own tax and basically act as freelancers, most say no to us. The majority simply wants a standard legal employment. Which I understand and I would like to have that too.
- wolco 8y agoAs a Canadian who has worked remotely for US companies it is pretty standard to be paided this way and makes employment a little simplier.
- basejumping 8y agoI keep seeing in remote job posts for US companies that you need a work permit, they don't mention the option to work as a freelancer. In the Netherlands a lot of people work from their own one person company.
- biztos 8y agoI doubt that "do their own tax" is the blocker there, I would expect it's much more about "give up on any kind of legal protection as a worker."
