Just have to work hard and believe in yourself thats what parents tend to tell their children these days one priority for many young people is maintaining some form of independence employment and traditional sense its no longer on walk for many job security is far less important than self realisation lets you know what a couple of self employed and creative modern day laborers have to say well you know were all familiar with the curve for a long time everything stays kind of the same before things finally takeoff i know that so well and always feel like giving up or at least i used to feel that way. And its really a choice of your ability if you want to stay you can stay as were its really some sometimes i mean project i like the people in most areas im going to. Terminate the contract. It started when i was really young and a teacher told me i would never be able to work for someone else. I realized i agreed with her completely i always wanted to create my own saying get something going realize an idea make something. Saying is the only way i could guys. Standish. Sometimes clients are remote. And this is another advantage as its sometimes nice to work from sunny contrie in the winter when its winter in germany or in europe are going to go to tire down there whatever this is. A nice. Economy dont but still. You can find more and more people like this doing this. Freelance like lifestyle and theres the nomadic. You can find quite easy to do some website. You can find. There are always highs and larry small hotels like when a client might pay that bill or takes a long time to do so that can be annoying. Even if. I rent a flat with a bedroom and a small Storage Space with a bunk bed. I call my company the emergency room its really meant for people in need or if someone doesnt have a place to go after a party i moved into it myself for six months i rented out my own room and lived in the company and in the opposite im also. Very liked which sounds really discover how the People Living in the city i discover i dont like the way tourists main main truth does so visit only the Tourist Police or whatever i really like to do to go see the real people. Its what scams ramadan it doesnt feel like work its more like a hobby or something i have to do like eating. I have to develop ideas create things. Because its fun. You. Had a very stable job before this and though for like i was in prison so i resigned and chose this lifestyle my beef might not be for the rest of my life i dont know but for now i like if its pentagon is false i cant imagine having a permanent position it would be like being in prison id have to fit into a set structure it just wouldnt allow me the level of creativity im used to. Youre also thinking. Now even the most autonomous freelance us a subject to some structure be a tool filling their clients wishes or having to submit a bit for the next project the digital jobs are quite fittingly mostly negotiated on internet platforms and completely new terminology has been developed to describe the positions cloud worker crowd worker geek worker or click worker well we wont leave you to figure out what they are on your own so heres a brief look at what the jobs and tail. Digitalization is changing how we work and what our jobs are called. Is a crowd worker shes a programmer but instead of working for one company on contract she takes the signed minutes from an on line platform to freelance for a female. Shes part of the crowd a huge pool of coders around the world with whom she competes for assignments. That also makes her a cloud worker she uploads her finished programs into the cloud for her constant hours she can work any time and anywhere she wants but she has no job protection or Social Security. Neither does tim hes a good worker as a selfemployed tradesmen he works in a traditional profession totally analog but he gets his contract one at a time via an internet platform just like an increasing number of pizza delivery workers and house cleaners. Then theres thomas hes a click worker hes a student and earns a living on the side with simple digital get the right product descriptions for online retailers and headings for photos he has to work quickly to even earn the legal minimum wage. Or the concept. Well freelancing doesnt easily fit with the ideals of germanys wealthiest state in fact trade unions are up in arms being a free lance in germany means you really are free to choose your working hours your place to work and the future but this freedom comes at a price on like a company employ you who generally enjoy some built in benefits a freelancer has to pay health and social insurance contributions out of his or her own pocket but in fact the distinction between freelance and permanent staff can be quite blurry at times which is a matter of concern for the head of germanys trade Union Confederation the hoffman come to gurlitz to meet the hoffman the leader of six Million Union members is celebrating their latest success siemens and bombardier had planned to axe two thousand jobs the union managed to prevent it yet. You might have your most people here only work for one company on permanent contractors like you but like me i have only one employer. But if your daughter bella. But many other media colleagues dont have permanent contracts even though they have only one employer its a practice thats also common outside the Media Industry thats what im here to talk about with germanys top unionist. Would. You be so my crew marcus behind the camera and josie you like oh yeah you know are you a freelancer thats right and its legit it is. So its all above board one of your own and it said there are two million independent contractors in germany how do you reach them. Were faced with technological changes theyve led to new forms of employment which often involve the misc. A fixation on independent contractors that includes for these people arent protected by collective labor agreements and they dont benefit from the Social Security system they leave these are worrying developments and were starting to see the emergence of a digital proletariat. We Union Activists will need to radically rethink how to represent the interests of people when these new forms of employment enormous shift. Include german employers must pay Social Security contributions on wages but not for independent contractors some companies try to avoid hiring on permanent contract its a widespread practice in Many Industries you just take for example where people provide a driving service bringing customers from a to b. The uber says its drivers are independent contractors not employees. Its been kind of odd for a twenty percent. To thirty percent just by defining feature of the employer employee relationship. Is an employer and has to shoulder those responsibilities ensure proper Tax Deductions pay Social Security contributions make sure that employees have Health Insurance and so forth. Lets say a freelancer an independent contractor comes to you and says whats my Employment Status at my workplace. Id like to get it sorted out. Because id like a proper pension to say to them ok here are the things we can help you with this under both of these reviews on the board for because. First of all we checked the Employment Status is are they really an independent contractor or are they being misclassified by their employer. And then we provide them Legal Support if they need to correct their Employment Status if they will start what we cant do is organize health and Pension Insurance or not. We can confirm for people that. They are selfemployed if they are independent contractors and then we can offer advice on their legal status their Labor Protections and social insurance situation we can offer advice but the freelancer has to carry it all out for disorder thats an important the service is and were always talking about how were becoming a Service Economy how life is becoming more complex so i need someone who can advise me and union should have people who do that. You know that yeah we have our own Legal Service department. So that Services Like that had to be paid for obviously theyre not for free so. This workers need to organize we need organized labor and unions because obviously we can achieve a lot more when we join forces and move it isnt an. Thing right. Yes you have to join the union but thats not asking too much if you know how much they have been well if you have a decent income the d. G. P. Unions charge you one percent of that income. I think its a good investment in this just get josie and marcus do you want to spend one percent of your income on a union or go back to since were already in the. Great thats what i like to hear. What joining unions or other organizations is something xclusive to human beings machines by contrast have no need or use for a group to look after their interests so what will become of us when the world is deep in the throes of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and robots have taken over many of our jobs. How will we work in the future. Human factory staff will be replaced by robots that will work efficiently and communicate via an intricate network. Products will be packed on to self driving delivery trucks computers will be able to detect heavy traffic allowing drones to take over transportation when needed. Home robots will recognize their colleagues from the delivery sector that accept the goods discard the packaging and carry on with their domestic duties. Back to the factory here only three d. Printers will be spitting out devices and appliances like a washing machine tailored to a customers wish blueprints will go out of the window even entire cities will be three d. Printed. Will most of the human workforce be out of a job as some do laden studies suggest absolutely not say research is from the other camp. They think the advent of robots will enable humans to complete the jobs theyre uniquely capable of those blessed with good interpersonal skills will thrive robots wont be able to replace teachers doctors or carers completely. Thats because humans are capable of empathy but computers rely on preprogramed responses they can analyze emotions and learn from that but wont feel anything. This new era will create new opportunities for people the demand for Financial Advisors educational guides and logistics professionals will grow. Robots will create time for people willing to work in the caring professions at jobs that will be better paid far from a horror scenario contentment will rise as people kiss you spiritual wealth over material possessions the future. Bright thanks to robot friends. Fascinating but back to the present now where many workplaces have already introduced major changes because not only freelancers decide a life or flexibility what and what regular Company Employees are asking for it to at a time where skill to a high qualified personnel is hard to find companies are feeling compelled to go the extra mile to meet the demands of the job applicants. Its so much like the dream work and vironment flexible hours no hierarchy at its budget vacation as you want. Anything goes and this Advertising Agency in berlin and the two hundred professionals here work in small autonomous teams. The founder is nominally also the c. E. O. But he doesnt get involved in what the teams are doing they decide themselves whether or not they can afford to take a two month break mrs i just think you have to create something that makes the best people on the market want to work for you that is i thats why i believe that power like the can you find the more traditional hierarchical is just an illusion. Theres always someone above everyone else whos making the decisions. And i would but i dont think that works anymore in todays world thats ever been the hiding your fortune you know so the employees are responsible for the companys success and they apparently never leave a customer hanging with us they want to think that our Corporate Culture is the primary factor behind our rapid growth just. Because not everyone here works nine to five everyone has a chance to give their projects everything theyve got. To maintain that we are. Through all the traditional structures out the window. Complex. But the concept behind whats referred to as new work is still in a test phase we have been in and that startup decided to alter its Corporate Culture on its own but not every company manages that some seek outside help or ask consultants new work has become something of a Business Model with no work so. It. Doesnt cost in money i founded the startup Consultancy Firm into a canoe are his clients include for example Insurance Companies that want to change internal structures to achieve more success. Eight hour working day was developed by henry ford to increase productivity on the Automobile Assembly line it has nothing to do with working in an office our ideas about what work should look like are outdated but if you work better in a hammock why should you be allowed to work in a hammock. This Small Business has worked on more than one hundred fifty projects since it was founded in twenty fifteen in spite of the fact that employees only work four days a week the project and were taking a look at how a working environment appears to an employee and at the moment it often looks bureaucratic or hierarchical that by boss is very structured very much process driven but we also notice that there is creativity within each employee that can help the Company Move Forward and we want to release this creativity as well to do this were trying to find ways to surprise an experiment. Theyre trying out new structures and workshops with Company Employees and supervisors but what looks like fun goes too far for some bosses. One of their customers is b. D. Z. Or the german Magazine Publishers association. Represents about five hundred publishers that print over six thousand bags englishs to maintain readership today they have to make the switch to online products but where can they find the graphic artists or software developers. For nurse part of a field we have to consider as new. The subject of training for publishers is a new one for a theme of who wins. When we have come to the company because it is closely acquainted with the thinking expectations work interests unemployment attitudes of young people and. Can. Many companies in germany still adhere to more traditional structures with strict hierarchies and inflexible working hours but startups have begun to dismantle that way of working because they understand that firms have to have something to offer if they hope to win over the past talent the people who are setting the pace of business today. And the best teams should really include both men and women right well not so in motor sport its neglected to take advantage of a huge source of qualified labor and im talking about women did you know that its been forty one years since a woman has raced in a formula one championship well nothing against the Sebastian Vettel said Lewis Hamiltons of this world but where are the women christina caught up with form a racing driver susie evolve to discuss the issue. Interests and one of the wells of my Motorcycle Racing still employs attractive haystacks is at the starting line to protect the drivers from the rain and the sun in formula one racing thats a thing of the past so why dont we see women participating at the pinnacle of motor sport. Almost everything for some its purely about statistics others say women are just not Strong Enough but the sad reality is women a conspicuous by their absence in major formula one race this. Women do take part in karting and other forms of the sport but few advanced a formula one little thing about on. Your books and the same goes for the pit not a female engineer all mechanic insights. Its got from there have been some very successful women and motor sport and theres no reason why there shouldnt be more in the future that would be sensational as you say thats a. One woman fighting to get more women into major sports is suzy wolf she was a williams test driver during the twenty fourteen fifteen season she took part in several training sessions for the stable and was just as fast as teammate Philippe Massa but another man was chosen to be the second jiver team or not the answer to. That is what was it like to be the only woman on the race track to. Be kept from going mad i did notice that i was getting a lot of attention because i was usually the only woman present. I know but i decided very early on in my career to focus on my performance. That i know my performance is what its all about. For me it was important to be on the racetrack and show what i could to. Fix my sex is a relevant. Is one why ive asked a few women in my just a lot more sport is because i think motor sport is seen by most as a male domain i mean ive been involved with it since i was eight and i know that it doesnt have to be that way i think we have to inspire the next generation and. Have to believe that they have a chance to work on or by the side of the race track. In this one thats why i set up dare to be different how to be different its an initiative designed to inspire the next Generation Next gets you and inspire you that. You dont just want more women behind the wheel you want to see more in motion in general whats holding them back this many can simulate talking when i sat in a simulator i worked with eight engineers and half of them were women. So there are a lot of good women out there and we want them to serve as role models for others its really important for young girls to see what women are doing this and this is both me get thrown does this couldnt this isnt a single sex race is an alternative should women and men take part together then. If i were to say they should compete in separate races then my whole career would have been wasted or there are only three sporting disciplines in the world in which women compete against men. They are sailing Equestrian Events like horse jumping or racing or writing and motor sport or. We dont need a separate discipline for women could we can take on men and be successful we just need more women on the race track so that the best ones get to the top to formula one the best in the form lines called luck on this you heard it this isnt about physical differences. Its a question of attitude so put your foot down and dont let us see a city in the drivers seat. No room for thea here but times up thats it for this weeks edition thanks for keeping me and the company. The be. The best. To. Get. The ball. To. Go. To malls very same style because im going to.
