Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA) has revised the free publication "Lexicon of Global Workforce Solutions-Related Terms", adding 61 new definitions.
The evolving Gig economy and the rise of healthcare are just part of the evolving terminology.
“The workforce solutions ecosystem is rapidly evolving and as it does, we are ever more in need of a common language around it,” said Barry Asin, President of SIA. “We are excited to be a part of defining and redefining the way people talk about, understand and facilitate talent across global labour markets. The ongoing expansion of the Lexicon reflects where industry discussions are heading.”
It is important for conversations about workforce solutions to use a common terminology with clear definitions so recruitment agencies can improve their competitiveness in this critical market.
