UK businesses are shifting to automation and offshoring due to rising wages and taxes, reducing permanent hiring.
Rising wage pressures and tax increases in the UK are making permanent hiring less attractive for businesses, prompting a shift toward automation and offshoring, according to recruitment firm Hays.
Higher minimum wages and national insurance changes have raised labor costs, leading companies to reevaluate roles and adopt digital or outsourced alternatives.
Workers are increasingly favoring flexible, project-based work over traditional full-time positions, partly due to cost-of-living concerns, reducing job mobility and slowing hiring across sectors.
Hays warns the UK lags behind other major economies in workforce adaptability and investment, urging employers to adopt hybrid models blending permanent, contract, and project-based roles while investing in digital tools and employee development to remain competitive.
