Differences between a temporary worker and a contract worker?
The distinction between temporary staff and contractors is purely based on how they are employed/engaged. As the title suggests, a contractor is employed by the client on a fixed term basis (common contract lengths are 3,6 and 12 months), are added to the employers pay roll and paid on a pro-rata basis, and are often afforded the same benefits and holiday entitlement as permanent employees.
Temporary workers are engaged on the basis of an hourly or daily rate. However, the fact that a temp is engaged on this basis does not dictate the length of assignment.
Temporary workers often continue in the same position for extended periods and some contracts are completed in a matter of weeks.
