[ˈpɜrməˌlænsər]

A worker who was initially hired on a freelance basis but has transitioned into a more permanent role with the same company, though typically without the full benefits of a traditional employee.

This type of employment provides a stable income and regular work while maintaining some of the flexibility associated with freelancing. Permalancers often continue to operate with a degree of autonomy and may still manage their own taxes and benefits, but they enjoy more consistency and long-term engagement compared to typical freelancers.
