ABSTRACT
Outsourcing has helped many industries reduce costs and increase profits. But businesses havenot yet been able to convey the real-time benefits of outsourcing. This has led to increasedsensitivity to the outsourcing of jobs, which have seemingly led to loss of employmentopportunities in the local economic system. “Seemingly” as this is not the case. For short while itmay seem that people are losing their jobs to outsourcing, but in the long run, as profits rise, theeconomy improves and with that new jobs are created.
OUTSOURCING
Outsourcing is often defined as the delegation of non-core operations or jobs from internal production to an external entity that specializes in that operation. Outsourcing is a businessdecision that is often made to focus on core competences. It also implies transferring jobs toanother country, either by hiring local subcontractors or building a facility in an area where labor is cheap. It became a popular buzzword in business and management in the 1990s.Outsourcing has really made its mark in the business entities. The decision to outsource is likethe decision to expand a business overseas, to incorporate computer technology, or to hire newworkers. Outsourcing can change the way companies do business-through people, process andtechnology. Whether B2B or B2C, whether SMS’s or large diversified companies or small homeoffices, every company can leverage the power of outsourcing for business transformation.Lately however, the concept of outsourcing has been criticized. The negative attitude towardsoutsourcing have been mostly discussed by masses in the US and UK, due to unemployment inthe mentioned countries. People in countries like the US, feel that outsourcing is threat to their economy. Economist Thomas Sowell from the University of Chicago said “anything thatincreases economic efficiency, whether by outsourcing or a hundred other things, is likely to costsomebody's job. There are
other problems
too.
