Bron is joined by Clinical Psychologist Dr Catherine Hart to unpack contracting work. Our popular Season 1 ep with Catherine focused on what contractors can expect salary-wise, and this time around we are focusing on how to work out whether your contracting arrangement is more like an employee relationship, why this matters, and what to do if you suspect your working arrangement isn't all that fair to you at all.

Mental Work is hosted by Dr Bronwyn Milkins, an early-career psychologist.
