How Companies Are Integrating Gig Workers Into Their Teams

Written By Tagan Smith

The smartest companies aren’t just tolerating gig work—they’re embracing it. From marketing to tech to customer support, freelancers are playing vital roles in business outcomes.

How companies are integrating gig talent:

  • Blended Teams: Mixing full-time staff with freelancers for agile project execution.

  • Talent Clouds: Building internal databases of pre-vetted gig workers.

  • Flexible Hiring Models: Scaling up or down depending on demand.

  • Technology Integration: Using platforms like Slack, Asana, or Trello to manage hybrid teams.

This model allows companies to reduce costs, access niche skills, and remain responsive in volatile markets.

Tomorrow, we’ll look at the risks and compliance considerations companies need to be aware of when hiring gig workers.
