What is National Freelancer Day?

In a bid to gain wider recognition for the contribution that contractors make to the UK economy - the PCG has announced today as National Freelancers Day.

The day is designed to:

Highlight this flexible community to UK businesses, showing how to engage and work with freelancers effectively. Celebrate Freelancing as a valid career choice, highlighting the community and support network. Emphasise that to unlock the full potential of freelancing, Government must recognise that freelancers are in business and entitled to clear and fair taxation laws.

National Freelancers Day will see a number of events taking place for freelancers across all sectors. PCG envisages that these events will bring together and underpin the importance of, the UK’s freelance workforce.

In tandem, PCG will also be calling on its members and the broader community to talk about what it means to be a freelancer and to spread the word through as many channels as possible. National Freelancing Day will educate the country about freelancing and embrace all interested in the freelance way of working - providing advice on hiring freelancers, becoming freelance and on how to make a success of freelancing.
