Gig Economy Hits High-Stakes Security: A New Frontier?
FO Take · Score 75

The gig economy is no longer just for side hustles or low-skill tasks. High-stakes security audits, demanding specialist expertise, are increasingly farmed out. This signals a seismic shift: businesses are shedding full-time talent for on-demand experts, accelerating the death of traditional employment. Companies prioritising agility over loyalty will face a talent crisis.

The strongest counter

Specialised contract work offers unparalleled flexibility and access to niche skills, benefiting both companies and experts. It is not a crisis, but an evolution.
