We had a staff member at my organization resign in the last few weeks. I am thinking about replacing her with 2-5 freelancers. We've already contracted with one freelancer to do our website.
"In 2017, freelancers made up nearly 36 percent of U.S. workers and contributed $1.4 trillion to the economy,according to a survey by Freelancers Union and the freelancing platform Upwork. By 2020 LinkedIn predicts 43 percent of the U.S. workforce will be made up of freelancers, contractors, consultants and other nonpermanent workers." -Delta Magazine, May 2018
NineShift's first shift, people working from home, was predicted by us 20 years ago. Welcome to the gig economy.
