Contracting & Freelancing – We Need Your Views

The way we work is changing – and more organisations are now recruiting staff on a contract/freelance rather than permanent basis. Workingdads.co.uk, along with workingmums.co.uk and partner agency WMRecruit are seeking to find out more about this way of working by running a brand new survey.

How to get the best exit deal

As more and more organisations look to plug skills gaps by taking on professional contractors or freelancers, we are seeking to find out more about this way of working, and what the challenging and pitfalls are

Often considered as a flexible working option, many workers choose to work in this way so that they can enjoy a variety of professional roles and where a higher salary can offset the lack of permanence.

Survey

We would be very grateful if you could spare a moment or two to share your experiences with regards contracting/freelancing, by taking part in our survey. It doesn’t matter if you have never been a contractor/freelancer, we would still like to hear from you about your views on/knowledge of freelancing and contracting.

The survey takes no more than 8 minutes to complete and everyone who responds has the choice to enter into a free prize draw to win one of 5 Amazon Echo Dots.

Thank you in advance.
