What is the difference between a side hustle and a second job? arrow-right

Second jobs are contractually much stricter than side hustles, but they offer much more formal stability. A second job has a legal contract with dedicated terms of work and expected hours & days of week for the job. Second jobs are usually on the weekend, outside of the contracted hours of the primary job.

A side hustle is flexible additional income stream, not associated with a legal job contract. Side hustles are commonly services offered on the terms laid out by the side hustler themselves with an agreed price to complete certain outcomes or work tasks by an expected date. The side hustler is not contracted to working certain hours of a day. How the side hustler completes the work outcomes is typically determined by themselves.

What is the difference between a side hustle and a part time job? arrow-right

Side hustle are very different to part-time jobs. A part-time job has formal agreement with documented hours and days of employment per week. The employer dictates the terms of the contract.

Whereas a side hustle gives you the freedom to decide how much you want to work and earn. Side hustles are usually a negotiation between both parties on the scope of work and expected outcome. Then agreement on the cost of work. A deadline date may be agreed, but this can sometimes be open. The key difference with a side hustle is that the side hustle typically dictates how and when they work to get the task (or gig) completed.
