contingent workers

Contingent workers are individuals who are employed on a non-permanent basis, meaning they do not have a long-term, full-time job relationship with a company. This includes temporary employees, freelancers, independent contractors, and seasonal workers. They are hired to complete specific tasks or projects for a set period, often providing flexibility for companies to manage varying workloads. Unlike permanent staff, contingent workers typically do not receive the same benefits, such as health insurance or retirement plans, and their employment ends once the task or contract concludes.
