Gig Work is Temp Staffing—just evolved

Gig Work is Temp Staffing—just evolved.
Let’s stop pretending these are two different worlds

Gig workers today are the same hourly, contingent workforce staffing agencies have supported for decades. The only real difference? Technology and delivery.

Gig platforms like Instawork, ShiftNOW, and Bacon have simply modernized the experience—offering mobile-first access, instant scheduling, and frictionless payments.

Whether it’s temp, temp-to-perm, contract, travel nursing, or per diem—it’s all the same model: flexible, hourly labor. The gig economy didn’t invent it. It just made it seamless.

📊 Consider this:

➡️ The contingent workforce now makes up 40% of the U.S. labor market, projected to hit 50% by 2050.

➡️ Gig platforms are growing fast—Instawork alone has 7M+ workers across 40+ markets.

➡️ Workers increasingly prefer app-based staffing for flexibility, speed, and control.

If you’re running a staffing agency and still relying on call centers, spreadsheets, and outdated portals, you’re not just behind—you’re invisible to the modern worker.

It’s time to evolve. Because gig work isn’t the future of staffing—it’s already here
