Coronavirus Fallout: How Independent Contractors Can Find Financial Relief
Nearly all workers have been affected to some degree by the coronavirus pandemic, whether you've lost your job, have been working from home, or have taken on extra responsibilities during these uncertain times.
Freelance workers and independent contractors may be particularly vulnerable to the financial effects of efforts to control the spread of COVID-19, in part because many of these workers didn't have steady incomes before the pandemic struck -- which can make it more difficult to set aside savings. A whopping 76% of independent contractors also revealed that they have lost work because clients have canceled projects due to the coronavirus, according to a recent survey from the Freelancers Union.
