What is wage portage?

Portage salarial is a form of salaried employment that guarantees a certain freedom to the professional. The latter enters into an employment contract with the wage portage company and is then protected by an employee status with this company. But unlike a traditional company, you remain in control of your rates, the choice of your customers and the contracts you wish to sign. However, it is the wage portage company that will establish the invoicing for you and will collect the sums generated by your contracts. From this sum will be deducted social security contributions, taxes but also a commercial commission which is intended to pay for the services provided by the company.

As an employee of a portage company, you will receive a pay slip and will be able to benefit from much more comprehensive social security cover than a freelancer. A strong advantage is also that even if you pay higher contributions than a freelancer, you will also enjoy a higher retirement pension, which is a strong fear for micro-entrepreneurs.
