Contingent workers are a vital source of skills and flexible labor. However, within large businesses, the hiring and oversight of these external workers is often split between different functions, regions, and hiring managers, providing poor oversight, inefficient use of resources, and difficulty in strategic planning. To effectively deploy these workers, companies need to take a strategic and integrated approach based on strategic governance, integrated workforce planning, and clear guidelines for managers to ensure consistency.
