Which arrangements count as standard employment depends entirely on the statistical definition used. Dependent self-employment describes workers who have one client and no employees. On-call work sits between temporary employment and zero-hours arrangements. Nonstandard work covers platform gigs plus agency temps plus on-call shifts and unpaid internships. Volunteer positions are counted as alternative employment forms in some labor surveys. Classification schemes disagree on whether interns belong in alternative employment forms. Statisticians group every nonstandard arrangement under one heading and lose the differences. Labor force surveys add new categories years after the arrangements appear. Platform-mediated work is classified separately from agency-mediated work in most taxonomies. Triangular employment puts a third party between the worker and the real employer. Policy proposals treat nonstandard contracts as one problem when the risks differ sharply.
