Contingent WorkforceThe Emerging Contingent Workforce: Benefits, Challenges, and Opportunities


This report, based on Brandon Hall Group's 2017 Contingent Workforce Study, reveals the current reality of contingent labor and provides a glimpse into the future of the contingent workforce. 90% of organizations use contingent labor -- though it comprises a small percentage of the total workforce -- and are expected to increase their use and spending over the next year. For the many organizations struggling with the contingent workforce (through a misunderstanding of where to find, and how to manage, these workers), this growth presents challenges that the more successful companies are able to overcome through through new technology, better internal processes, and emerging third-party services. Top findings include:

  • The management of the contingent workforce depends heavily on the size of the organization. The reasons behind hiring contingent labor also differ significantly by organization size.

  • Most organizations see contingent labor as effective and strategic, and plan to increase spending.

  • The greatest challenges for managing contingent labor involve compliance and technology.
