Self Employed Persons and Home Business " About one-third of persons who usually worked at home in May 2004 were self-employed. Of the 7.0 million self-employed persons who worked at home, two-thirds had a home-based business--that is, a business run from their home and no other location. Nearly half of self-employed persons with a home-based business worked at least 8 hours per week at home, and almost 22 percent put in 35 hours or more at home. On average, self- employed persons with a home-based business worked 25 hours per week at home. (See tables 1 and 5.) About 45 percent of self-employed persons with home-based businesses were in management, professional, and related occupations in May 2004. Sixteen percent were employed in sales and related occupations. On an industry basis, about 1 in 4 self-employed persons with a home-based business worked in professional and business services. Some 18 percent of persons with a home-based business were employed in the construction industry." --Bureau of Labor Statistics |
