Employment is a contract between two parties, one being the employer and the other being the employee. An employee may be defined as: "A person in the service of another under any contract of hire, express or implied, oral or written, where the employer has the power or right to control and direct the employee in the material details of how the work is to be performed." Black's Law Dictionary page 471 (5th ed. 1979).

In a commercial setting, the employer conceives of a productive activity, generally with the intention of generating a profit, and the employee contributes labour to the enterprise, usually in return for payment of wages. Employment also exists in the public, non-profit and household sectors. To the extent that employment or the economic equivalent is not universal, unemployment exists.

How do seasonal and temporary employment contracts work in reference to unemployment benefits?
Q. If I take a job that is listed as seasonal and am hired knowing this will I still be eligable to file for unemployment insurance when the season is over or the time has lapsed that the contracted employment was for?

What are some good alternatives to finding employment?
Q. I just moved to an area where there aren't a lot of jobs (no surprises in this economy). Do you have any suggestions for creative ways to seek employment?
Asked by Gone Fishing - Sun Feb 8 19:47:19 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In today's economy people are not willing to hire, but that does not mean that every business is at a loss. Without knowing your age or location it is hard to give you perfect advice but in general if you are willing to spend some money to start your own business, a franchise is always the best decision during a recession. Decent food for reasonable prices, plus minimum wage workers and a guaranteed supplier can not be beat. A friend of mine owns a burger king, kfc, and soon checkers and he is doing great. You only need a charter from the company and a solid business plan. If you dont have the capital to start your own business there is always the option of working from a home office or pc.

What do Employers use to perform pre-employment background checks?
Q. What site or service provider (if any) do most employers use to run pre-employment criminal background checks? Also, if a conviction is had in 1 state, will the record of it show up on a background check performed in a different state?
Asked by rick r - Sat Feb 2 02:38:15 2008 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments

A. A higher end service would be CrimCheck ( ), they have actual investigators digg deep into court and other systems to provide the most information. Those background check generally cost $50-$100 and can take up to a week. Faster and cheaper results come from instant background check websites, such as , they usualy cost $15 for a statewide check and $30 for a nationwide check, but since the data comes from online records only, courts that haven't put thier records into a computer will not show in these reports. But they still do a good job.
