Optimizing Contract Labor Management and Reducing Risks

July 2, 2024
New report offers a strategic look at contract labor usage, management, budgets and potential risks.

Today, contract labor management strategies are key for organizations looking to address skill gaps and scale operations. A new report explores the current state of contract labor usage and highlights the use of contract workers, reducing the associated risks, and focusing on safety compliance and risk management.

As businesses respond to labor shortages and changing customer demands, contracted labor is becoming an important resource. Although the use of contracted labor may solve some of these concerns, effective contract labor management is necessary to avoid the risks of cyberattacks, worker safety, compliance, and potential data breaches.

This report reveals that while many organizations recognize these risks, only 33% have dedicated supervisors for contract labor, and 60% are minimally or moderately invested in safety management.

To better understand how to manage third-party labor risks and optimize your use of contract labor, read the full report.
