The word "hirers" is derived from the verb "hire", which in turn comes from the Old English word "hyrian". The Old English term was borrowed from the Old Norse word "hirja", meaning "to hire" or "to rent". This root word is ultimately connected to the Proto-Germanic word "hurzjan", meaning "to gain possession". Over time, "hire" developed as a verb to describe the action of employing someone in exchange for payment. Additionally, adding the "-er" suffix to "hire" forms the noun "hirer", which refers to someone who hires or employs others.
