volver a emplear es mejor que recontratación porque:

- se contratan trabajadores autónomos

I beg to differ with Delmar on


Explanation:
recontratación, since it means to rehire, whether an independent contractor or an employee. Since legal terminology does distinguish, at least in Mexico, between independent contractors and employees, both on rights and obligations and tax treatment, they are both hired or contracted. Since this is an employee handbook, binding upon employees, I suggest you _do_ use recontratar as a correct legal term that would express your needs.
