Although today’s non-employee workforce is entering its most exciting phase, many organizations hold elements of fear regarding specific aspects of this industry. This week’s episode of the Contingent Workforce Weekly, sponsored by ZeroChaos, is a fun Halloween edition of the podcast; we chat about the four scariest aspects of today’s contingent workforce, including compliance and a lack of intelligence, and how businesses can address these issues.

This week’s episode of the Contingent Workforce Weekly podcast, sponsored by ZeroChaos, highlights how businesses today are adapting to the “new world of work” that is fueled by on-demand talent, the gig economy, and the continued evolution of the contingent workforce. Episode 118 also answers some additional listener mailbag questions that were cut short out of last week’s podcast.

Episode 117 of Contingent Workforce Weekly, sponsored by ZeroChaos, is October's listener mailbag edition. Host Christopher J. Dwyer answers listener questions concerning independent contractor compliance, the evolution of the gig economy, the importance of online staffing and online talent platforms, and the progression of stakeholder collaboration (i.e. procurement, human resources, IT, etc.) in the wake of total workforce management.

Episode 116 of the Contingent Workforce Weekly podcast (sponsored by ZeroChaos) highlights some early research findings from the upcoming State of Contingent Workforce Management research study (publishing in late October), discusses why companies are just now preparing for the "future of work," and talks about why concepts such as "hot-desking" and co-working spaces are playing an evolutionary role in non-employee workforce management.
