Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The description of the worker aligns with that of a contractor, who performs specific work for a limited time period, is paid on the basis of an agreement covering that work, and is not considered an employee of the organisation. Temporary employees may work for a limited time period but are typically still considered employees of the organisation, while casual, full-time, and part-time employees are all types of traditional employees who work on an ongoing basis.
