Spanish term or phrase: autonomía y substantividad
Es una clausula de un contrato de trabajo temporal. El contrato está en catalán, pero traduzco a continuación la frase al castellano o español.
6. El contrato temporal se suscribe para:
**** _ La realización de la obra o servicio ............., teniendo ésta [asumo que ésta=obra] autonomia y sustantividad dentro de la actividad de la empresa.****

Supongo que la cláusula simplemente clarifica que el empleado ha siso contratado para desarrollar únicamente una obra o servicio concreto, y por lo tanto dicha labor tendrá autonomía y "sustantividad" en relación a otras obras que la misma empresa pueda estar realizando al mismo tiempo.

¿Van por ahí los tiros? Si sí, ¿cómo puedo traducir sustantividad?
Muchas gracias
Quim

independent contractor


Explanation:
You mentioned that the worker "ha sido contratado." My translation, "independent contractor," is how we designate a worker or professional in the United States who only does work for a company on as "as needed" basis, and usually for a variety of companies at different times. They have no legal status, benefits, or rights that a regular employee is entitled to.
