THE CHANGING WORKFORCE
How people live, work and spend their money has changed dramatically over the past decade, especially with the advent of smartphone technology. The gig economy is growing rapidly – today 27% of the workforce is made up of gig or independent workers and is predicted to grow to 50% in the next 5 years.
Technology isn’t the only thing fueling rapid growth, the gig economy is offering workers greater flexibility, freedom and personal fulfillment in their jobs. Attend our June Friday Forum to learn what near and long-term solutions are available for your business.
