Their salaries are returning to pre-covid levels after dropping 20-25% post the nationwide lockdown, says a survey.
New Delhi: Independent professional consultants or high-skilled gig workers’ salary in India is coming back to the pre-covid-19 levels, after dropping between 20% to 25% post the nationwide lockdown, a fresh survey released on Tuesday said.
A changing work culture, the current economic environment, the growing preference of employers to attract independent and high-skilled consultants in varied sectors to fulfill short-term requirements without bothering about long- term productivity is driving this revival.
The survey, carried out among 70,000 independent professionals and based in 384,000 salary quotations by human resource firm FlexingIt, indicates a revival in the salary space in the labour market and would cheer employees who have faced either a job cut or salary cut in the past appraisal season.
