Employment Types refer to the different types of employment arrangements between employers and employees. They include full-time or permanent, part-time, casual, contract/temporary, seasonal, self-employed/independent contractor, trainee/apprentice, and volunteer/unpaid work. Each of these has its own implications for the employer and employee in terms of job security, pay rates, working hours and conditions, benefits, contracts, and tax obligations. Knowing the differences between these types is essential for both employers and employees to ensure their rights and responsibilities are defined and upheld.
