Is a freelancer or contractor entitled to vacation and maternity or paternity leave?

Free the Freela is the first talent marketplace to offer job opportunities with benefits for freelancers and contractors

We are taught to think that everything is black or white, one thing or the other, that we can have freedom but not stability, that if we want growth we need to give up sustainability, and that for someone to win it is necessary for someone else to lose.

Have you ever seen yourself falling into this logic?

Free The Freela (opens in a new tab) comes to challenge the rules, with the certainty that it is possible to create work relationships that are both fair and cost-effective.


You no longer need to choose, at Free The Freela (opens in a new tab) you can be a freelancer, self-employed or independent talent and still receive benefits.

On the other hand Startups (opens in a new tab) and (opens in a new tab) SMBs (opens in a new tab), can hire top and vetted talents with great value for money to boost their growth.

What Benefits Does Free The Freela Offer?


Vacation

The name says it all, doesn't it? The Rest benefit is so you can take a few days off to rest, disconnect, recharge and everything we do when we can take a break.

Parental leave

The Care benefit, on the other hand, was thought for those who are expanding the family, a form of paternity or maternity leave. Through it, mothers and fathers can dedicate themselves to their offspring with peace of mind.

FAQ

The science is complex, but the answers aren’t. If yours isn’t here, let’s talk.

How long before I get candidates for a role?

Within 72 hours you’ll receive a shortlist of top-fit candidates based on their behavior alignment, experience, and communication style.

What if none of them feel right?

We’ll keep working. We recalibrate based on your feedback and deliver a refreshed shortlist until you find the right match. You don’t pay until you hire.

Is there a minimum commitment?

No. Try us on a single role. Month-to-month or one-time fee, your choice.

How do you ensure cultural fit?

Behavioral voice analysis maps how a person actually communicates, decides, and collaborates — the signals that drive real cultural fit, not the surface ones a résumé can show.

Can I reject anyone from the shortlist?

Absolutely. The shortlist is a recommendation, not an obligation. You move forward only with people you’re excited about.
