Another variety of contingent worker is temporary workers, or “temps.” Legal problems can arise when temp workers—particularly those kept on for long periods of time and doing the same work as regular employees—challenge their exclusion from the benefits available to a company’s regular employees. Employers must not arbitrarily exclude some workers from benefits of employment by designating them as temps when they are employed on a long-term basis. Nor should they do the same work as regular employees or meet other legal criteria for establishing employee status.
