[ˈfrækʃənl ɪmˈplɔɪmənt]

An emerging employment model in which an employee is hired for a fraction of the 40-hour work week.

Similar to a contractor or freelancer, a fractional employee spends a specific amount of time each week with an employer or multiple employers, offering a portion of their time and expertise. This arrangement provides flexibility for both the employee and the employer, allowing companies to access specialized skills and knowledge without the commitment of a full-time position, while employees can diversify their work experience and manage their schedules more effectively.
