Why are contracted workers often a more<br><br> attractive alternative for employers?
Rashid [163]

Contracted workers have a particular term to be served and cannot leave before that and for fixed price and company does not have to give any social security or compensation to these workers.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Contracted workers are those employees who work in a company for a particular period of time and the salary of the employees is also fixed in the case of the contracted employees.

The employers are not liable to pay for any social security to these workers and the compensation of the workers are also not to be paid by the employers to these contracted workers. This proves to be an advantage for the companies they prefer these contracted employees.

White raven [17]

The correct answer is: "America passes the Neutrality Acts of<u> 1935, 1936, 1937, and 1939</u> which put restrictions on Americans during war".

The Neutrality Acts were enacted in the 1930s decade to limit the participation of the US in future wars, after its participation on WWI, which had brought an intense feeling of disillusionment.

Such acts banned trade and financial operations with belligerents, as it was believed that economic operations with the allied powers had pushed the US into WWI, and the US government aimed to prevent the same mistakes again.
