OUTSOURCING CREATES NEW JOBS
from: John Parker Despite, the hue and cry over off-shoring of call centre and
programming jobs, the backlash against outsourcing is far too
exaggerated. Global Insight, a survey company hired by
Information Technology Association of America concluded that the
entire process of off-shoring / outsourcing created more jobs
than those lost.
A worldwide economy is bound to lead to globalisation leaving no
industry safe from its effects, as off-shoring / outsourcing
news proves every day. From online tutors coaching American
children to lawyers outsourcing legal research / briefs for
upcoming cases to India, it is a trend here for the long-term.
As most companies do business overseas, what can be more natural
than they employ people based in the country of their business
interests? Low wages, high tech communication are just a few
factors that provide enormous incentive to move operations
overseas. Criticism against outsourcing / off-shoring is
misplaced as the Global Insight study reports. Rather than
reducing US jobs, outsourcing / off-shoring has helped lower
costs and create jobs as a result of a more efficient economy.
According to the report, in the year 2003, 194,000 IT and non-IT
jobs were created largely due to outsourcing / off-shoring. And,
it is expected by 2008, that number may well exceed the 589,000
new jobs created mark. If outsourcing / off-shoring is
generating so many new jobs, and at the same time lowering
costs, while making the American economy function with smooth
efficiency, why is there so much breast-beating about lost jobs?
Companies outsourcing / off-shoring low-end work, free employees
to concentrate on streamlining other aspects of their business.
Overall, no one loses while everyone benefits from the current
outsourcing / off-shoring trend! Instead of moaning and
groaning, adapt, innovate, and hone your skills or simply change
your job for something you have always wanted to do but never
had the courage to try! Outsourcing / off-shoring is the future,
the sooner one understands and accepts, the better!
