My Viewpoint
I believe IT offshoring is neither wholly good nor bad ,it depends heavily on how it’s managed and the broader economic context.
-
Managed Well, It Can Be a Win-Win: If organizations offshore responsibly by investing in workforce reskilling in their home countries, promoting fair labor practices offshore, and fostering sustainable partnerships, the benefits can outweigh the drawbacks.
-
Ethical Responsibility is Key: Companies should ensure offshore workers have good working conditions and fair wages, avoiding exploitation.
-
Local Workforce Adaptation: Home countries should focus on adapting their workforce through education, training, and innovation to remain competitive in evolving job markets.
-
Balanced Approach: Rather than offshoring everything, companies might use a hybrid approach that retains some jobs locally while benefiting from offshore expertise.
