> I strongly doubt that is the case. But I'm not a contractor, and I haven't enumerated the work involved. That's exactly the case, and additionally I'm paying around 30% more per employee to the government. Being a contractor in my country means filling a maximum of 2 forms per year, out of which one is a registration form and the second one has to be filled anyways even if you're an employee, you just fill a different box. Having an employee is at least 7 different forms after hiring and then at least 4 more forms per year, a lot of government requirements, compulsory bullshit schooling (bullshit from the employee's viewpoint) that I have to provide, etc.
