Research output: Working paper › Discussion paper › Scientific › peer-review

Abstract

With the COVID-19 crisis as background, the underlying paper elaborates on setting up an unemployment insurance for self-employed. While a comprehensive approach would have clear advantages, it is crucial to adapt the rules of existing insurances for wage earners appropriately addressing the specific needs of self-employed. Therefore, we discuss key rules and conditions with
regard to self-employed and derive conclusions on how unemployment insurance for them should
be designed. In this, we investigate the key elements of such an insurance
