Freelance professionals now make up 35 percent of all U.S. workers. That’s an increase of 2 million over the past two years, with 63 percent saying they started freelancing by choice, not by necessity. Leading the charge is Bobbi Brown, founder of the global makeup brand. As she launches her new lifestyle and wellness concept, justBOBBI, she isn’t shy about sharing just who she wants by her side.
Freelancers, who made up a mere 6% of the workforce in 1989, are expected to represent 43% of the workforce by 2020. So how did we get here? According to a recent survey by LinkedIn, there are a few key factors that lead to this explosion of a contingent workforce.
By providing one streamlined platform for total freelancer management, businesses can leverage the new Modern Workforce where the number of freelancers will soon be equal to the number of permanent employees in most companies.
