For workers in employment for profit, an intermediary may supply raw materials and receive the goods produced by dependent contractors, or else access to clients may be controlled by an intermediary, typically using the Internet. In these cases the contractor may be paid directly by the client, or payment may be received only through an intermediary that benefits from the work performed by the contractor.

  == Job-dependent social protection ==
 . //Job-dependent social protection// provides information on whether the person is entitled to social protection as the result of employment in a particular job. It therefore excludes “universal” protection schemes that are not dependent on the person’s job.
