Long term permanent and pensionable contracts have their space but flexible contracts present a unique advantage to both organisations and individuals.
Moreover, a blend of permanent and flexible contracts provides the company with a pool of potential talent to hire from.
As companies connect with the idea of flexible labour, filling these roles is at times more complex since most employees still have a preference for permanent roles.
It is crucial therefore that companies offering this service must establish stringent processes to check the qualifications and backgrounds of the staff and ensure that organisations have access to the best possible operational solution for their specific business.
According to the ILO report (2020) specialisation and the global market for scarce skills will continue to drive the flexible skills market and companies need to set structures that will enable them tap effectively into this emerging flexible talent.
