seasonal workers
Holiday retail hires
Seasonal workers are employees hired for jobs that occur only during certain times of year.
Agricultural workers harvest crops in summer and fall; retail stores add staff for the holiday rush; ski resorts employ instructors only in winter.
The arrangement suits both employers who need temporary labor and workers who prefer periodic employment: The farm relies on seasonal workers to pick strawberries each June.
