trabajadores eventuales
Explanation:
Personas que puedan trabajar en el proyecto en forma "eventual" o transitoria, sin ser de planta.

Iba a poner "jornaleros" pero no cabe puesto que por el contexto se tratará de trabajadores intelectuales a pesar de la palabra "labor", pero en otro contexto quedaría muy bien.
