dayworker
Paid by shift
A dayworker is someone hired and paid by the day rather than on salary or long-term contract.
The term often applies to domestic workers—cleaners, nannies, gardeners—who come in for a day's work rather than living with the household: The dayworker comes on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Also applies to casual laborers in agriculture or construction.
