【报告内容简介】
With the rapid growth of the sharing economy, on-demand staffing platforms have emerged to help companies manage their temporary workforce. In this paper, we study how to maximize and distribute the benefits of on-demand workforce in this new business context. We consider an on-demand staffing platform and multiple employers with uncertain and possibly time-varying demands. Compared with the traditional staffing solution, we first investigate when the on-demand staffing platform can be beneficial from the perspective of a central planner. Next, we propose a novel fill rate-based allocation and coordination mechanism that enables the on-demand workforce to be shared optimally when individual employers and the platform operator make decisions on their own interests. Our result provides a win-win-win solution: Individual employers and the platform operator share the maximum benefits of on-demand staffing, while workers are able to set their own hours.
