How to increase income?

The economic crisis hurt the income of some of us – employees who were placed on unpaid leave or business owners and self-employed people who were harmed. On the other hand, it freed up time for us to think creatively and outside the box. Here are some directions of thought with which you can increase income and perhaps even enjoy professional and personal satisfaction.

Increase income in the workplace

If you’re lucky enough to still be employed, you can increase your income in one of the following ways:

  • Check the possibility of working overtime or ask for a raise.
  • Check the option for additional vacation days and travel refunds,.
  • Check whether there is a component that you can add to your responsibilities and job in exchange for a salary increase?

Create a new source of income

  • Make a list of your abilities and skills so you can focus on the appropriate area of employment.
  • Get help from friends, acquaintances and family in search of another job.
  • Read the “wanted” sections on the Internet and in the printed press – maybe a certain job will catch your eye.

Additional part-time work

There are jobs that allow flexibility and can be done as a second shift. For example::

  • Housework: ironing, folding laundry, washing dishes, cooking, baking (cakes, challot, malawah, jahnoun and more)
  • Computing: typing jobs, printing, answering surveys, proofreading, translating documents.
  • Digital and marketing: content writing, social media marketing, video editing, graphic design.
  • Mailings: distribution of newspapers, distribution of flyers, distribution of mail, couriers.
  • Instruction / Early Childhood: Babysitting, After school day-care (Tzaharon), creative / cooking class, story time, Torah class, adult instruction in the fields of Internet and computer use, providing private lessons.
  • Safeguarding: security, house security, animal protection (dogsitter).
  • Sales: sales promotion from home, setting up sales stalls (popsicles, soft drinks, homemade pastries etc.).
  • Cleaning: car wash, office/residential cleaning.
  • Handicrafts: sewing, knitting, clothing repairs.
  • General: inventory in stores, exam supervision (matriculation, college, university), makeup and hairstyles for events, gardening work.
