Employee versus contractor is a work-design decision
The labels hide different control, cost, and lock-in. Argumont can structure the choice. It must not be used as autonomous employment authority.
Not legal advice. Classification rules differ by jurisdiction. Do not score people on protected characteristics.
Criteria that usually matter
Duration of the need, control over how work is done, cost including burden, knowledge retention, and how painful it is to reverse.
What to keep out
Protected traits, health data, and any criterion that is unlawful where you hire.
