“Contingent talent and freelancers can’t find a ‘real’ job and are second-rate.”
“Extended workers like temps and consultants are less engaged and productive than FTE’s.”
“I can’t include non-employee workers in my DEI, people analytics, and employee engagement practices because it’s too risky.”
These common misperceptions are limiting workforce strategies and risking access to the incredible value the extended workforce can bring to your business. As HR, Procurement, IT, and business leaders collaborate to ensure access to talent through all workforce segments, it’s crucial to understand the costs, risks, and opportunities associated with non-employee workforces.
Join the Extended Workforce Influencer Forum as we tackle these myths. As always, we’re bringing together a panel of experts like Tony Buffum from Upwork, to tackle these myths and engage with a lively community of extended workforce influencers.
Learn how overcoming these misconceptions can unlock untapped opportunity and help make your next enterprise talent strategy more agile, compliant, and cost-effective.
