Contract Worker Lawyers for Edmonton Alberta

Workers on Contract Lawyers in Edmonton, AB

Employed workers on contract in Edmonton are those who are brought in for a short period of time to work on a specific project. This is done when a company requires niche expertise that they do not have internally, and instead of hiring someone full-time, they bring in someone who already has the skills required.

DEPENDENT CONTRACTOR

It is a common misconception that employees receive severance whereas those who are characterized as contractors don’t.

Independent contractor agreements are becoming increasingly common, especially in an economy as dynamic as Alberta’s.

Flexible Fee Arrangements

BEWARE of firms that push for contingency arrangements

IE: working for "no money up front"

This may NOT be beneficial for you. In some cases it may be much better for you pay hourly for an action with high monetary return — keeping much more in your pocket.

If it's free YOU could be the product! At Taylor Janis we give you the CHOICE.
