Video: A new kind of job market, or the commoditisation of work?
by Mark Eltringham • Comment, Workplace
At a TED talk delivered in London at the end of 2012, Wingham Rowan, project director of Slivers-of-Time, a ‘work marketplace’, says that websites such as his are thriving by bringing together what he terms ultra-flexible workers with employers to deliver short periods of work on specific tasks.
