Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The contingent work force has grown about 4 times as fast as the rest of the work force over the last two decades.

Therefore, option A is the best choice. Option B and C are incorrect as they only consider one type of worker in the contingent workforce. Option D is also incorrect as the contingent workforce has grown, not shrunk, over the years.
