Question

An individual employed part-time at a retail store that schedules her based on the busiest times and days throughout the year, which fluctuates. She finds it difficult to create a monthly budget because her schedule is very erratic. This is an example of ______ employment.

Answer 1

Answer: contingent

Explanation: It refers to the employment in which the job of an individual is not fixed with the company. In case of contingent employment, the employees are usually hired when there is a specific project to complete that needs extra work force.

Unlike seasonal employment the these employments are non recurring and there is no time fixed for employment that an individual could expect.

Thus, from the above we can conclude that the given case is an example of contingent employment.
