Italian term

lavoratori in proprio

Italian to English Social Sciences Human Resources
normally I would translate this as "self-employed" but the text is about labour statistics and deals with the broad categories under "lavoratori autonomi" (for which I was using "self-employed") and "dipendenti"..here is an example:

"Alle 8:00 del mattino, infatti, sono al lavoro solo il 19,0 per cento dei liberi professionisti a fronte del 46,9 per cento degli imprenditori e del 43,4 per cento dei lavoratori in proprio."


Under specific types of autonomi/self-employed: free-lance professionals, business owners, and .... ?

Crdo rimanga soltanto: "workers on their own" , come dice anche Pnina. Oppure separare: "free-lancers" e "professionals" per averne due a disposiz.

I am adding a quotation.
"...the impending war for talent means that employers will have to accept the newest workers on their own terms."

I see your difficult, and hope this helps, although I'm no expert in this field

Er, I meant "I see your difficulty", not "I see you're difficult" :)
