BusinessWeek to outsource contract jobs

The New York Post reports that about 20 BusinessWeek contract workers could be reassigned to Kelly Services, a temporary staffing group headquartered in Michigan.
Keith J. Kelly reports that contract workers, who were assigned for a short-to-long term basis for the magazine and in the past drew paychecks from McGraw-Hill, were not technically fired by reassigned.
Still, he says, the changes have made some staffers nervous.
"People are pretty upset," said one insider. "They go from working for McGraw-Hill, which had some cachet, to working for a temp agency."
A BusinessWeek spokeswoman told Kelly there’s no need for alarm.
"This was a business decision," she said. "It will help manage the administration of their pay."
