Co-Employment
and Managed Service Providers —
A
New Way to Think about Navigating Co-Employment
The Canadian
labour market consists of nearly 1 million finance professionals; 1.1
million workers in the Educational Services sector; and just over
950,000 professionals in Public Administration. All of these are
examples of sizable, high-impact industries within our economy.
However, none of these sectors matches the size and scale of the
contingent workforce, a portion of the Canadian labour market that
currently employs almost 10% of all working Canadians or 1.6 million
employees. As a leading indicator of the economy, the contingent
workforce will be the first to expand as the economic picture gets
brighter.
As companies continue to rely on contingent staff as an important part
of their workforce strategy, employers need to be mindful of the
intricacies that relate to using contingent labour. While many of the
well-known aspects of using contingent staff — flexibility and cost
effectiveness — are clearly understood, there are other aspects that
have historically lacked clarity and resulted in some
less-than-positive outcomes for employers. Perhaps the most significant
of these aspects is co-employment. Find our more by clicking
