Not all business operations should necessarily be handled in-house; it can often be cheaper and more efficient to give some of the work to outside contractors. But as wise as such a decision might seem, that doesn't mean your employees have to like it.
OUTSOURCE 外注する
- To outsource is to contract with an outside supplier for goods or services rather than obtaining them from within your own organization.
- outsource とは、商品やサービスを、自分の組織内で調達するのではなく、外部の供給者と契約をする、つまり、外注する、という意味です。
- (during a management meeting)
It might make more sense for us to outsource during peak months rather than ask our employees to work so much overtime. - Many firms choose to outsource non-core business functions, such as IT and call center support.
- (two employees on their lunch hour)
a: What are you looking in the want ads for?
b: I heard a rumor that my job is going to be outsourced. I want to be ready if it happens.
Enjoy the weekend!
