Script

Employees sell their work or, to be more precise, their work time, to employers. Nonetheless, not all workers are employees. Those workers who are not employees are either (a) independent contractors or (b) volunteers.
Independent contractors are self-employed; they are their own employers.
Independent contractors provide their customers with their market exchangeables, usually, services and rarely with their work time. Unlike employees, the contractors deliver what their contract specifies and they don't need to report the customers how the work is done and when the work is done.
The United States Internal Revenue Service, which is better known by its acronym, IRS, distinguishes employees and independent contractors for tax purposes. In the United States, employers pay taxes for the employees, while the self-employed are responsible for their own taxes.
Those contractors who work for different organizations, rather than working all the time for a single organization are known as freelancers.
Self-employment is the state of working for oneself as a business owner, entrepreneur, independent contractor, or, in some circumstances, volunteer rather than for an employer.
CNMCyber is here to help in whatever job you would like to land.

Key terms

Worker, employee, independent contractor, self-employed, self-employment, freelancer
