The emergence of contractor management outsourcing

Like many across the globe, Australian businesses have experienced significant changes in the approach to workforce and contractor payroll services. Companies are adopting new strategies to manage their contingent workforce, brought on by the need to streamline their workforce engagement.

Employing contractors can be complex with specific legislation covering everything from how contracts are drafted to how employment and payment is structured.
