EMPLO

YMENT
Employment is a relationship between two parties, usually based
on contract where work is paid for, where one party, which may be
a corporation, for profit, not-for-profit organization, co-operative or other
entity is the employer and the other is the employee.[1] Employees work in
return for payment, which may be in the form of an hourly wage,
by piecework or an annual salary, depending on the type of work an
employee does or which sector they are working in.

Employees in some fields or sectors may receive gratuities, bonus

payment or stock options. In some types of employment, employees may
receive benefits in addition to payment. Benefits can include health
insurance, housing, disability insurance or use of a gym. Employment is
typically governed by employment laws, organisation or legal contracts.

An employee contributes labor and expertise to an endeavor of

an employer or of a person conducting a business or undertaking (PCB)
[2]
 and is usually hired to perform specific duties which are packaged into
a job. In a corporate context, an employee is a person who is hired to
provide services to a company on a regular basis in exchange
for compensation and who does not provide these services as part of
an independent business.[3]

An issue that rises in most companies, especially the ones that are in the
gig economy, is the classification of workers. A lot of workers that fulfill gigs
are often hired as independent contractors.
