Time and attendance systems can help companies better manage freelancers

British companies make more effort to integrate freelancers into the corporate culture compared with businesses in Germany, France, the Netherlands and Belgium, a recent news report has been able to suggest.

Because of the continued labour market shortages, companies are finding it increasingly difficult to find suitable employees. That is one of the reasons why 95 per cent of companies use freelancers, who can be deployed quickly and flexibly.

Four in ten UK companies (41.9 per cent) do not make a distinction between permanent employees and freelancers in their HR policy. Over one in five UK organisations (22.2 per cent) have an HR policy only for permanent employees, and 35.9 per cent have developed a separate HR policy for freelancers.

Furthermore, the survey identified that many UK companies (70.1 per cent) assess freelancers in the same way as their permanent personnel.

Freelancers have more freedom to organise their work and working hours than permanent employees. However, the context is changing: the boundaries between employees and self-employed are fading and more and more companies are using freelancers.
