National Freelancers Day 2009 is an initiative organised by the Professional Contractors Group to bring attention to the work of freelancers, contractors and consultants, and to highlight the economic benefit they bring to the UK.
The day will see a range of real world and web events designed to encourage a better understanding of freelancing as a style of work, while encouraging both businesses and workers to a tackle of the issues facing the sector.
National Freelancers Day 2009 is being promoted with the key message that freelancers form a significant part of the UK business sector, and has the following aims:
- To deliver a ‘Manifesto for Freelancing’ to those standing at the next election; and
- To seek to educate both businesses and the community to provide a better overall environment and support network for freelancers.
National Freelancers Day takes place on 23rd November 2009.
