    Contractors also can hire employees to help complete a job.

    Gig economies technically allow for this but the hired person has to onboard with the gig corporation. At which point they’re contractors themselves and would have no incentive to be your employee.

    In other words, contractors, being specialized labor with their own equipment, are generally people running crews of employees and this is built into contractor laws.

    Gig jobs only pay lip service to this requirement and use it more as a recruitment tool.

    The whole thing is nuts and would have blown up into a huge class action if not for mandatory arbitration agreements built into the onboarding process.
