Create your own job while unemployed! Light entrepreneurship is a flexible way to find employment. Read how to safely combine gig work and job hunting.
Yes, you can! In fact, it is often highly recommended. Instead of passively waiting for the right job to come along, you can create it yourself.
How does this help the unemployed?
Activity: You stay connected to working life and network.
Additional income: Earnings improve your finances, even if they slightly reduce your benefits (adjusted daily allowance).
Flexibility: You can take on individual assignments. Jobs lasting less than two weeks do not usually affect your unemployment status.
If you later find a permanent job or start studying, you can pause the light entrepreneurship service at any time. There is therefore no risk in trying it out.
