Is a relaxed labor market taking away the appeal of solo self-employment? A recent research report from the Federal Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs suggests this: Fewer and fewer self-employed people in Germany are working without employees.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cGiven the favorable economic situation, the labor market often offers better Employment alternatives<\/span>.“<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In 2014, 2.34 million people in Germany were still working as sole proprietors. In 2012, the number was 2.46 million. The number of self-employed people with employees remained stable at around 1.85 million during this period.<\/p>\n

Restless pensioners<\/h3>\n

An interesting trend: One in four solo self-employed people starts their business out of retirement. The study authors see this as a trend:<\/p>\n

"As the labor force ages, but especially due to a growing propensity to work, (...) retirement is being postponed. This is especially true for higher-skilled, complex jobs, which are often associated with strong intrinsic work motivation."<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In short: more and more highly qualified older people do not want to put their feet up and are starting their own businesses.<\/p>\n
