| Mar 26, 2018 at 22:32 | comment | added | Andrew | I agree with Lambie that "paid" is clear and simple. Alternately you can rewrite the sentence: workers are paid while volunteers are not, and also you get paid for working but not for volunteering. | |
| Mar 26, 2018 at 22:16 | comment | added | Lambie | Working is paid but volunteering is not. To do paid work, to do unpaid work i.e. volunteering. | |

| Mar 26, 2018 at 22:06 | comment | added | user3169 | Your question is unclear. You wrote "salaried" in the title but not in the body. Also, you need to define what the compensation is. It doesn't have to be money. | |
| Mar 26, 2018 at 21:38 | comment | added | StoneyB on hiatus | @DiegoRafaelSouza Not rewarded - we often speak of the rewards of volunteering, which are not financial. | |
| Mar 26, 2018 at 21:27 | comment | added | Diego Rafael Souza | @J.R. Fair enough. So rewarded can fit as well. | |
| Mar 26, 2018 at 21:23 | comment | added | J.R.♦ | @Diego - I agree that paid is a good suggestion, but think that stipendiary would be just as awkward and cumbersome as compensative. | |
| Mar 26, 2018 at 21:13 | comment | added | Diego Rafael Souza | Maybe paid or stipendiary? Is that what you're looking for? | |
