94: Ep 094 - The Rise of Choice-based Employment and Rewriting the Employee Contract
Episode 94
Monday, 23 February, 2026
Welcome to SHRM Global Radio, and today we’re diving into one of the biggest disruptions in the modern labor story: the rise of choice-based employment and the rewriting of the employee contract. Yes, you heard that right. The world of work has officially walked up to the traditional job, patted it gently on the shoulder, and said, “It’s not you… It’s us. Actually, no, it is you.”For decades, the full-time job has been treated like that most reliable of household appliances: the fridge. Dependable, always there, humming in the background, storing our leftovers and career hopes. But lately, workers are discovering they might not want the fridge. Maybe they want a mini-fridge… or a cooler… or five small snack-sized fridges they can move around the house. And suddenly, the idea of one employer for life doesn’t feel like a given. It feels like an option. One option among many.
