Omnipresent, a leading provider of global employment solutions, has officially announced the launch of its innovative Contractor Management solution, which is designed to streamline contractor management through seamless payments, and compliance, as well as through administrative efficiency for businesses operating in over 200 countries. In order to understand the significance of such a development, we must take into account a recent study where it was revealed that the global gig economy had a value of around $455 billion in 2023, with a rather significant portion attributed to freelance and contract work. Now, when you put that alongside most businesses’ wider ambition to expand their operation internationally, it comes absolutely crucial to manage contractors efficiently. Having said so, as of today, these enterprises still continue to face challenges in facilitating timely payments, tracking invoices, and navigating complex compliance landscapes. This becomes especially evident in the context of payments to contractors in regions that they do not currently operate in, or when the agenda is to make sure that they don’t fall foul of contractor misclassification laws, which can lead to legal complications and financial penalties. Fortunately, OmniPresent’s latest brainchild addresses all those concerns through a single effort.
