Why ShiftPixy is Such a Fast Growing company

A study by Intuit predicts that by 2020, a full forty percent of American workers will be independent contractors. Independent contractors work with rather than for a company and much of the benefits and costs that a company would cover for the worker gets shifted away from the company. As businesses seek for better ways to cut costs and improve their bottom lines, the largest expense, workers are becoming the causalities.   

Companies are able to shed workers so easily because of a few converging factors that are undeniable and gaining momentum as you read this. These factors include the fast advance of technology in the workplace. Software, hardware, and new digital platforms aimed at specific business functions are either totally replacing or seriously minimizing the need for humans.

Another factor is the mobilization of today’s workforce, where many are willing and able to work from home or a remote location instead of the office. Because the new work force consists primarily of millennials who do not have the same relationship and feelings about being in the office, this new and mobile way of working is welcomed.  

This new state of affairs is called a gig economy and in this type of economy, people will change jobs often, expect to work remotely and will switch from part time to full time work regularly. Many workers in a gig economy will work freelance, never even seeing the companies they work for in person, and certainly never going to an office to get their work done or even have meetings.

For businesses in a gig economy, the goal is to constantly effectively manage resources, particularly office space, employee benefits and employee training costs. As such businesses will contract with outside companies to provide resources that the company will then not have to take on themselves.

The most valuable of these outsourced companies is one that can provide workers for businesses in a way that gets them quality employees when they are need but without the cost and headaches of having to actually hire them. Shiftpixy excels providing this service to companies.
