Morphology

nonsalaried = salaried (transparent) = non + salary + ed

Formation by adding the negating prefix 'non-' to the adjective 'salaried' is a regular and directly interpretable process.

Etymology

Nonsalaried is made from non- meaning 'not' and salary, a word that comes from an old word for 'salt' because people were once paid with salt. So nonsalaried means 'not getting a regular salary'.
