Marketplace outsourcing service OutsourceMyProject has
welcomed news that there is an increasing demand from employers for
freelance and contract workers. The company has also affirmed the
quality that an effectively outsourced task can bring to a project.
Last month’s employer survey by the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC),
titled JobsOutlook, revealed that the tentative UK economy has discouraged permanent
employment and led more business owners to seek freelance, contract and temporary
workers.
According to the report, 83 per cent of employers said that their use of temporary
workers will rise or remain the same during the next year; and four out of five of
them expect an increase within the next three months.
Only 49 per cent expect to add to their permanent workforce within the next 12
months, compared to 66 per cent in the previous month; while short-term permanent
recruitment expectations stand at 67 per cent, compared to 74 per cent previously.
Loren Holland, managing director of OutsourceMyProject, said: “These figures show
that employers are waking up to the wealth of flexible human resources available to
them.
“Rather than take on new staff on a long-term or full-time basis, specific projects
can be completed by sourcing people with exactly the right skills and experience for
each task.
“Whether a business is large or small, or even if someone working alone is looking
for one-off assistance with a particular project, it is possible to find a freelancer to offer
invaluable support.”
OutsourceMyProject is based in the UK and helps match businesses from a range of
sectors to the right service providers, from freelance web designers to freelance SEO experts.
