Paid Demolition Help Liability Waiver - Do they protect us?

I am about to start interior demolition on a house we are buying to renovate and BRRR. I am planning on hiring some college kids to help with the labor of tearing out walls, subfloors,...etc. With doing this I realize that I am taking on the risk that one of them could get hurt and this could potentially be very expensive for me. I'm planning on having them all sign a Volunteer Liability Waiver, absolving me of any responsibility should they get injured. However since I intend to pay them for their time I believe they would be 'employees' of mine while doing this work which could negate the 'volunteer' waiver.

Does anyone have any experience with this?  I didn't see any Waiver Forms uploaded on the File Sharing forum.  Any input is greatly appreciated!

Thanks BP!
