Non-traditional Employment

Non-traditional employment refers to work arrangements that differ from standard full-time, permanent jobs with regular hours and benefits. This includes part-time work, freelance projects, gig work (like ridesharing or delivery services), temp jobs, and self-employment. Such arrangements often offer flexible schedules and independence but may lack job security and traditional benefits. Non-traditional employment has grown with technological advances and changing labor market needs, providing more options for workers seeking flexibility or supplemental income, while also posing new challenges regarding stability and worker protections.
