You don’t realize it, but it’s highly likely that the next time you begin to evaluate a new vendor for HRIS, payroll, time and talent management software, you’ll probably run into the dilemma of trying to determine if you should take a unified or best-of-breed strategy.

A recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling helps clarify the legality of employment contracts asking employees to waive rights to class and collective actions.

By the year 2020, 43 percent of the US workforce is expected to be made up of “freelancers” in some capacity (there are already 53 million today, or over a third of the workforce). More and more Americans are eschewing traditional employment in favor of temporary, part-time gigs -- hence the name “the gig economy”.
