What is the role of an independent worker?

We identify, train and retain a pool of persons interested in utilizing their available time productively.

For our managed services, our client’s requirement for independent workers throughout the month is never same. Some activities are on weekends, when requirement might be as high as 50 to 100 people, while some activities are through the week where requirement might not exceed more than ten people. Therefore, as it is feasible for us provide flexible timing and approaches to the independent worker instead of hiring full time employees just to meet fluctuating requirement.

Independent workers act as the backbone for the operations and delivery team. Independent workers support the operations team for process execution for all kinds of activities and this is aligned to their areas of interest be it technology, sales, HR, Operations, Social work or Finance.

These independent workers while managed in sync with their college, are expected to perform as professionals independently and document their experiences and learning. A discussion of these with an assigned mentor and designated college staff would enrich the learning experience.
