Entrepreneurship profile

Your entrepreneurship profile sits under Profile → Business details → Entrepreneurship profile. It is yours, and it is computed from the days you clocked in CrewShift yourself: your clients, your days and hours, the amount per engagement and the hourly rate that follows from it.

The profile passes no judgement and gives you no score. It shows what the record holds, and what you do with that is between you and your adviser.

Until you've clocked out of your first day, you see No worked days yet where the computed sections go. Documents, the declaration and sharing already work.

How days, hours and amounts are counted

Day: a calendar day on which you worked on one project. Two projects on the same date count as two days.

Hours: from your clock-in to your clock-out, with no break deduction. That is the widest basis, so the hourly rate that follows from it is the most cautious reading.

An office day has the same clock-in and clock-out time, so it counts as a day with 0 hours. You can have days without hours.

Amount: pay for labour only (base pay by the day or hour, overtime and premiums). Equipment rental, per diem, expenses and VAT are left out. So it is not your invoiced turnover, and it won't match your invoices.

Engagement: one project, from your first to your last worked day on it.

Share: the part of your days, hours or amount in a year that sits with one client, as a percentage.

Every clocked-out day counts, including days you haven't submitted yet. Only a shift that is still running is left out.

Clients and dependency

For each calendar year you see how many clients and engagements you had, how many days and hours you worked, and the amount that goes with them. Below that is your largest client of that year: the one with the most worked days (hours break a tie), with its share of your days, hours and amount.

The sector questionnaire asks about more than 3 clients a year, and about 70% or more of your worked time at one client. The profile states those two points as facts.

Each personal project counts as a client of its own, so two personal projects for the same client show up as two clients. To count the producers you worked for, leave personal projects out.

Presumption of employment (art. 7:610a BW)

Article 7:610a of the Dutch Civil Code ties a presumption of employment to three consecutive months of work for the same client: every week, or at least twenty hours a month. Whoever invokes it doesn't have to prove it. The other party has to rebut it.

The profile works out two windows per client, both ending with the last completed period:

Months: the three completed calendar months before the current one, and in how many of them you worked 20 hours or more for that client.
Weeks: the thirteen completed weeks (Monday to Sunday) before the current one, and in how many of them you worked at least one day for that client.

Both are strict: three of three months, thirteen of thirteen weeks. If neither is reached, the profile only states what the record shows. If one is reached, it says the record points to the situation art. 7:610a BW describes.

Clients with no day at all inside those windows aren't listed.

Pay per engagement

For each engagement you see the client, the first and last worked day, the number of days and hours, and the effective hourly rate: that engagement's pay divided by its clock-in-to-clock-out hours.

Days without a calculated amount are left out of that rate, and so are office days with 0 hours. If no day has both hours and an amount, there is no rate to derive, and the profile says so.

Below €38 per hour, the profile states that as a fact. €38 is the proposed figure for the presumption of employment in art. 7:610aa BW (Wet VBAR), and the ministerial regulation that fixes it isn't settled yet. It isn't a minimum rate, and being below it isn't a violation.

While an offer is being composed, two labels can show under its rate (see Rate signals). The fairPACCT one is a sector guideline per job level. The €38/h one divides the offered day rate by the project's standard day length, or takes an hourly rate as it is. Here the rate comes from the hours you actually clocked, so this profile and the offer label can disagree.

Returning clients

Clients you worked for in more than one calendar year, with those years listed. An assessment looks at recurrence alongside volume and share.

Not derivable from this data

CrewShift knows your worked days and the amounts that go with them. These parts of an entrepreneurship assessment aren't in it:

Insurance: disability (AOV) and liability.
Acquisition: how you find work and how you present yourself.
Tax treatment: profit from enterprise, VAT returns, entrepreneur deductions.
Investments in your business.
Your own equipment used on set.

Documents

Below the computed sections you keep your own business documents. Pick a kind (Disability insurance (AOV) certificate, Business liability certificate, Professional liability certificate or Other) and attach a PDF, JPEG or PNG of up to 10 MB. The issuer and the date it is valid until are optional. Then tap Add document.

Each document shows its kind, issuer, validity date and filename. Tap the filename to open it. A document without a date shows No expiry date. CrewShift states the date as a fact, either the day it expires or that it has expired.

A KVK extract has no kind of its own. You can look up your KVK number in your profile, and only a number you looked up there counts as verified. Passports and ID cards don't belong here, so there is no kind for them either.

You can't edit a stored document. To correct one, delete it and upload the new version. Deleting removes the file and its entry. A declaration you already signed keeps its document list as it was when you signed.

Declaration

The entrepreneurship declaration is the sector questionnaire, filled in and signed by you. It has six parts: entrepreneurial risks, acquisition, clients, tax treatment, investments, and whether you are paid through a payroll company.

Tap Fill in the declaration to start, or Continue your draft if you already began. Your answers are saved as a draft while you go, so you can leave and come back. Nothing is shared at the draft stage.

CrewShift fills nothing in for you. Your name, company name, KVK number and website come read-only from your profile. Everything else is your answer.

In the clients part, pick Year your business started first. It decides which of the last two calendar years you are asked about, because a year before your start year is skipped. Next to each year you see what the CrewShift record holds for it (the number of clients and the share of your hours at your largest client) to compare against. What you answer is what gets stored: the questionnaire covers all your work, and CrewShift only knows the days you clocked here.

If you pick a "something else" option under acquisition or investments, describe it in the text field, or the question stays open.

To sign, read the statement at the bottom, tick the box and type your full name. That name is never filled in for you. Sign only becomes available once every question is answered, the box is ticked and your name is typed, and above it you see how many questions are still open.

Signing stores your answers as they stand, together with a snapshot of your profile details and of the documents you have at that moment. After that they are fixed. A signed declaration can't be changed.

CrewShift then seals it as a PDF with a certificate page carrying the hash of its contents, the same way deal memos and invoices are sealed. A note says the sealed PDF is being prepared until it is ready, and then Download PDF gets you the file. The sealed PDF is always in Dutch.

When your situation changes (a new year, a new policy, different clients), tap Fill in again. Your last answers are prefilled, and signing creates a new version. Earlier versions stay on record and are in your data export, but this page and a producer's ZZP record always show the latest one.

Nothing goes to a producer until you switch sharing on. Sharing with a producer lists the producers you work or have worked for in CrewShift, including one who has only sent you an offer so far. Each has its own switch, so you can share before your first shoot day.

The switch is per production company: the producer who owns the project. Co-producers who manage that producer's projects see the same ZZP record.

With sharing on, that producer gets the following, never with client names:

your signed declarations and their sealed PDFs
your documents, with kind, issuer and validity date
per calendar year, how many clients you had, your total worked days and total earned amount (labour only) across all of them, and how many of those days and how much of that amount were with that producer, also as a percentage

That producer keeps a ZZP record for your engagement. Without sharing it holds what they can see anyway, the days you worked for them, and lists the missing profile as an open point. Once you share, your declaration and document list appear in it, and a missing signed declaration, an expired document or the lack of any AOV or liability certificate each show as an open point. If you declared for a year that you did not work 70% or more of your time for one client, while 70% or more of your CrewShift days that year were with that producer, the record lists that too, noting that work outside CrewShift doesn't count towards the share.

A producer about to book you also sees a short signal at booking time. With sharing on, it adds the share of your days and earned amount that sat with them in a year and how many clients you worked for, again without names.

Switching it off stops new access. Checks that ran while it was on keep what they recorded, such as your yearly totals and declaration answers, but the declaration PDF is left out of later downloads. The section shows since when a producer has access and, once you switch it off, when that stopped.

You can open the same record yourself, read-only: on the project, go to Hours & pay and tap ZZP record under your deal memo.

Who sees what

Everything else stays with you. Names and figures of your other clients and your hourly rates go to nobody, and a producer you haven't switched on gets nothing from this page.
