freelance draw up contract -Levia

Give a brief explanation of working freelance ?

A freelancer is basically someone who is there own boss and can work at will and whenever they want ,they don't really have to answer to anyone or go into an office because they can work at home and maybe if they have enough money they can employee there own staff or assistant,
Freelancers may work part-time or full-time. Because they are not considered employers, freelancers are allowed to work for other employers and are usually permitted to perform tasks in their own way, so long as the work gets done to the client's specifications 


List the main advantages and disadvantages

Working from home or from a remote workplace as a freelancer allows you to dictate your own hours and work at times most convenient to you. Freelancers with young children, for instance, can work after the children are sleeping.
As a freelance worker, you can control your work load. While client demands can, at times, dictate your schedule, you can turn away work during busy times or accept more work during lean times.

Disadvantages

Another disadvantage to freelancing would be it gets very busy as your basically your own boss and you tell yourself what to do, but on top of that this is where things get really stressful especially if your terrible at maths, yes that means you have to do your own accounting, while as if you’re in a company you wouldn't have to worry about accounting what so ever.
