虽然先前的研究确定了利用临时工实现数字灵活性的不同方法，但对临时工的定量分析仅限于几个关键的需求变化经验指标，这可能会混淆重要的差异。我们的分析提供了证据，证明许多制造商利用临时工来实现我们所说的有计划的和系统的数字灵活性，而不是简单地以被动的方式来处理意外的问题。虽然临时工作可能为雇主提供许多好处，但一个关键职能似乎是提供数字灵活性，而不是缓冲核心工人，而是将某些工作外部化。
While prior research has identified different ways of using temporary workers to achieve numerical flexibility, quantitative analysis of temporary employment has been limited to a few key empirical indicators of demand variability that may confound important differences. Our analysis provides evidence that many manufacturers use temporary workers to achieve what we call planned and systematic numerical flexibility rather than simply in a reactive manner to deal with unexpected problems. Although temporary work may provide many benefits for employers, a key function appears to be the provision of numerical flexibility not to buffer core workers but to externalize certain jobs.
