Legal lingua: Casual Worker

A casual worker is someone who is not formally employed, or more specifically is an employee who is not employed through formalised procedures.
Casual workers get paid a bit more than a person employed full time. A lot of times they usually get paid on an hourly basis so contracted fees work out to be around 20 per cent more than the employed.
The drawback to being a casual worker though is that they have no sense of security with their employer, and benefits are most time if not all the time absent from the contract or agreement.
