Question

Give reasons why a company would prefer using supervisors than a outside contractor to perform work?

Answer 1

No supervisor is going to want to do regular "work" unless there is a problem.  The supervisor will want to hire the contractor.  Money must be tight and the company isn't hiring ,  not even temps./

Answer 2

Companies would prefer to use there own employees whenever they need management or supervision.  The reason?  Because a contracted employee is only working under contract.  Once that contract is fulfilled then they will be released, potentially leaving any issues or problems to occur in the future.

In addition, a contracted employee cannot be reprimanded like an actual employee.  There are legal issues that could arise.

Just my two cents.

Answer 3

Depending on the type of business there is the issue of intellectual capital. When a worker leaves an organization their experience and knowledge leaves with them.
