Iamindependent Launches a New Health Insurance Program for the Contingent Workforce
Industry-leading Independent Contractor BPO solves the biggest challenge facing the growing population of independent professionals – access to quality health insurance
Tenafly, NJ (PRWEB) July 18, 2003 - iamindependent, the industry-
Leading Independent Contractor (IC) Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) firm, today announces that it has launched a new health insurance program for independent contractors. Through this program, independent contractors (a. k.a. 1099Â’s, temps, consultants, etc.) gain access to iamindependentÂ’s nationally available comprehensive health insurance at affordable employer group rates.
Recent studies across all market segments have suggested that as many as 30 million people in the United States could be performing work on an independent contractor basis. The number of these flexible or contingent workers in America is on the rise due in part to personal career decisions, or the current lack of permanent employment opportunities as a result of a highly volatile permanent employment market.
Companies and government agencies will need to address the evolution of the workforce dynamics; begin to develop strategies of how to engage this growing workforce demographic most cost-effectively and without risk, and how to make available to contingent workers traditional-employment type perquisites such as health and medical benefits.
“Up until now independents have had a difficult time obtaining traditional employment-type services such as affordable and comprehensive health and medical coverage,” said Michael Beygelman, President and CEO of iamindependent. Mr. Beygelman continued, “Today we are pleased to announce a new service for contingent workers that will solve this market segment’s single biggest pain point.”
