Here is what I would consider a very basic breakdown in the USA:

(1) Employee -- further broken down into exempt or nonexempt (from minimum wage/overtime calculations)

(2) Contractor -- very specific rules to fall in this group...many companies in the USA use these incorrectly. These generally work for themselves and not through #3 or #4 below

(3) Temporary/Placed employees -- workers from an outside agency who are employees of the outside agency

(4) Vendors - those who provide third party services (janitorial, insurance brokers, accountants, lawyers...just to name a few)
