Labor contractors are independent contractors sometimes referred to as labor brokers. They provide workers, in both skilled and unskilled labor areas such as farm work, construction and factory work. Companies may subcontract work to labor contractors, who then hire workers to complete the needed projects. Labor contractors use a number of methods to recruit workers, including advertising and word of mouth. Many labor contractors advertise on the internet for both potential clients and workers, and some even may transport, house, and provide meals for workers. Regulations for labor contractors vary by state, so individuals considering starting a labor contractor business may find it helpful to contact their state labor department to obtain more detailed information.
