About This Book
With the 5th revised and improved edition, published by a state funded publisher involved in EU programs and a partner of the Federal Ministry of Education, you receive the concentrated expertise of renowned authors (overview in the book preview) and extensive add-ons as well as individual consulting. At the same time, you do good and support sustainable projects. Because especially managers, who have often worked hard for their position, believe that they have to manage everything on their own and find it hard to give up work. At the same time they want to please everyone and can hardly say "no". But this attitude is fatal for personal time management and work efficiency. And the consequences are unmistakable stress and excessive demands. What helps these people is to learn to give up work step by step, to trust other people and to realize that it is possible without them - but without making themselves replaceable.

You can only submit individual smaller work areas, such as typing or input work, which do not necessarily have to take place in the company itself, but also entire company areas, such as the design of your website, accounting or customer service. Advantages:

Social security and its peculiarities | |
If you specify the type of work, the place of work (in your premises) and the working time to the contractor, the contract could be a disguised contract, that is, it appears to be self-employed. If this turns out to be the case during a review by the German Pension Insurance Federation (DRV), you have to pay social security contributions retrospectively from the start of the contract, both employer and employee share (unless the employee was insured elsewhere). You must also change the contract so that either a normal employment relationship is created or the contractor is properly self-employed. The contractor can also sue for permanent employment. If you want to get around this: Apply to the DRV in advance for a status assessment procedure. Artists and publicists: Do you place more orders than freelance artists or publicists (for example, web designers, but not programmers!)? For this you have to pay artist social security. | You must register the employee with the health insurance and the professional association, and calculate and pay the contribution to social security on a monthly basis. You can simplify this by hiring a mini jobber. If you yourself are insured through the artist's social security fund, for example, you may employ only one employee. However, additional trainees and marginal employees are allowed. Interns and family members: All regulations shown here also apply to family members or interns. Even if you hire the latter unpaid, you must take out insurance through the trade association. |
Employment Law | |
If your contractor is beyond doubt self-employed (i.e. not bogus self-employed), but receives at least half of his total earnings from you (one third in the case of artistic or journalistic work) and performs his services essentially without employees, he is considered to be an employee-like person under the Collective Agreement Act: he then has Entitlement to paid leave and educational leave and can bring disputes to the labor court. Social security does not cause any problems. | When you delegate work to workers, you have to

company law | Which laws you have to observe |
As a sole trader, you can also work with other self-employed on an equal basis - e.g. a butcher and a baker who share business premises and customers, but also a journalist and a cameraman who work together for individual projects. As soon as you as an individual entrepreneur cooperate with others on an equal footing, you are a civil law company (GbR), even without a written contract. The GbR itself can not conclude contracts and can take no or money, only you as an individual entrepreneur can do that. The same applies to income tax. However, the GbR may have to pay sales and trade tax. And: The members of a GbR are liable for everything they do together - but not for more. In the case of permanent, permanent cooperation, it may make sense for you to found another company, such as a GmbH. | In all cases, you must comply with the legal minimum conditions for employment relationships. These are set out in the following laws:

Richtig Delegieren lernen
- Überlegen Sie: Wer kann die Aufgabe am Besten ausführen – und warum? Wer hat die geeignete Sachkenntnis, wer wird am Schnellsten arbeiten. Teilen Sie mit, warum Sie sich gerade für diesen Partner oder Mitarbeiter entschieden haben – dieses Vertrauen wirkt motivierend.
- Was soll ganz genau soll getan werden? Achten Sie hierbei auf genaue Formulierungen und stellen Sie durch Nachfragen sicher, dass die andere Person alles verstanden hat. Sprechen Sie alle Vorgaben zu Quantität und Qualität ab, schreiben Sie es auf. Achten Sie aber darauf, dass Sie das Ziel beschreiben, nicht den Arbeitsgang an sich. Unter Umständen können Sie einige Vorschläge zur Ausführung einbringen. Die anderen haben so die Freiheit, selbst zu entscheiden, wie sie die Arbeit ausführen. Diese Eigenverantwortlichkeit fördert die Motivation.
- Benötigt der andere eine Spezielle Ausrüstung, irgendwelches Werkzeug oder auch Informationen und Fakten. Achten Sie nicht nur darauf, dass Sie den Auftrag erteilen, sondern auch darauf, dass Sie alles was, zu seiner Ausführung wichtig ist, mitgeben.
- Bis wann soll die Aufgabe erledigt werden. Legen Sie den Zeitpunkt der Fertigstellung wenn möglich mit den anderen zusammen fest. Wenn das nicht geht, erläutern Sie, warum der Endtermin schon feststeht – etwa weil der Kunde dann die entsprechende Lieferung haben möchte.
- Warum soll der Auftrag ausgeführt werden? Menschen führen nicht gerne Arbeiten aus, deren Sinn sich ihnen nicht erschließt. Machen Sie daher noch einmal explizit klar, was der Sinn und Nutzen dieses Arbeitsganges ist. Wenn der andere das versteht, wird er viel besser arbeiten.
