A person or business must have a Home Improvement Contractor License if engaged in the construction, repair, remodeling, or addition to any land or building used as a residence.
Until contract approval, these records are generally confidential unless both the public agency and the bargaining unit agree to their release.
A freelancer is similar to an independent contractor, but they tend to work on a project-to-project basis and have multiple employers at the same time. Independent contractors will be on long-term contracts, where freelancers are usually hired on short-term contracts.

It depends on the union, the local and the company typically. As others mentioned the bargaining committee should be made up primarily of members from the shop. The E board of the local is usually part of that but not all of the committee. Staff reps and lawyers are there to support and sometimes lead at the table.
