Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Freezing hiring is the best choice to manage the talent surplus as it allows the company to avoid further increasing the number of employees and the associated costs, while also providing an opportunity for the company to focus on developing and retaining the existing workforce. Outsourcing to a third party or using contingent workers would not address the surplus issue and could potentially add additional costs, while increasing employee work hours through overtime could lead to decreased productivity and burnout.
