Are companies turning more to part-time workers as a way to curtail costs?
Yes and no. Many large employers who downsized during the last 18 months or so are turning to Part-Time Pros because they need those highly skilled professionals back as business improves but cannot afford to offer a full-time schedule. Small companies — 20 employees or fewer — aren’t always looking for ways to curtail costs. Instead, they’re looking for ways to grow their business and be as efficient and effective as possible. Hiring a part-time professional is a way for these companies to grow without the huge overhead expenses.
