Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Contingent workers are employees who work part-time, just for a specific project, or as needed on a provisional basis. Since they usually work on a temporary interim basis, managers cannot expect contingent workers to have the same level of commitment to and identification with the organization that permanent, full-time employees have.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: The U.S. workforce now stands at 49.8 percent female. With changes in employment that are likely to take place after the current recession ends, women soon are likely to make up the majority of workers.
