Self employed instead of the time is the future – Polish Radio

Self employed instead of the time is the future – Polish Radio

This will involve technological change. Although today this idea seems unreal, is, according to Margaret Starczewska-Krzysztoszek, principal economist Confederation of Leviathan, in the future it would be viewed differently.

– Today, we still have a nineteenth-century conflict between capital and labor. We have the staff and various forms of employment. One side is the employer, the other side is the staff and each other constantly complain – says in an interview with news agency Newseria Business Starczewska-Krzysztoszek Margaret, chief economist of the Confederation Leviathan. – Sooner or later we will have to think about this solution, that at a time when finishing education – regardless of what level we finish it – we all assume that economic activity, that is, everyone becomes an entrepreneur.

The situation may change

Starczewska-Krzysztoszek stresses that, while now the idea seems to be unrealistic, and the trade unions certainly would oppose it, that in a few years it may already be perceived quite differently. This is due to changes in technology – a growing part of the economy moves into the world of Internet and mobile applications. It provides easy access to many services and skills. In 5 or 10 years, how would an economist, such a direct business relationship may also move to the industry and other sectors.

– Everyone is an entrepreneur and relationships are no longer the relationship between the employee and the employer, but between business and business – says Starczewska-Krzysztoszek. – It solves a lot of problems, because then we will all work as a trader on the same basis. We will pay the same taxes and the same social security contributions.

The risk on both sides

emphasizes that in this way the business risk would be equally distributed between employers and employees. This would take place for the benefit of the employees who at the moment are more than economic risk of fluctuations and release.

This would be his own business for motivating employees. In this way, they depend on the longest presence in the market, because it would provide a high retirement.

Starczewska-Krzysztoszek adds that in order to ensure long-term growth in the economy, you must also change the method of calculation of public debt. Investment expenditure should not be counted to him, so that more resources could be allocated among for research and development. However, this requires negotiations with the European Commission.

– Each country has committed itself to the fact that the public debt must not be higher than 60 percent. Of GDP, while the annual deficit to GDP ratio will not exceed 3 percent. It is very difficult to cut social spending, the easiest way is to cut the pro-development. I would like to propose that we try to convince the European Commission to the fact that such a deficit and public debt are calculated only on the basis of expenditure that are consumer spending, not investment – says chief economist of the Confederation Leviathan.

Also important are family-owned companies

He adds that it is also necessary fiscal support for family businesses. In the European economies, companies of this type are 60-70 percent. companies in Germany are up to 90 percent. Family businesses provide economic stability. The support of these enterprises in Poland is particularly important, because – as he points out Starczewska-Krzysztoszek – is almost time for succession in family businesses Polish companies established in the early 90′s.

– You have to think about how to legally to support the transfer of businesses, so that they can continue to develop. In Germany, at the time when the owner leaves or dies, the heirs of the first 7 years old when they own and the company operates, do not pay taxes – the economist said.

Although for the western boundary of the voices are being raised about the unfairness of such a solution against those who inherit property, and not a company asset Starczewska-Krzysztoszek weapons of tax exemptions succession in family businesses. Stresses that this type of inheritance taxation may lead to insolvency of the family business, or at least pick up the possibility of further development.
