The PERK Protocol is on a mission to solve the world's workforce challenges. These problems have been amplified by both "The Great Acceleration," of increased technology importance to business survival since the pandemic, and the "The Great Resignation," whereby people have reconsidered the future of work and employment. PERK is committed to incentivizing workers and employers at the same time, creating an ecosystem that benefits all. Human capital problems are widespread and felt global, including the following: The unnecessary challenges in leveraging a global workforce because of payment, compliance, and currency conversion inconsistencies. The high cost and length of time required to find the right person for the right job at the right time, elevated by a lack of trust and standardization in talent acquisition. The sluggish ability of corporations to adopt diversity, equity, and inclusion as urgently as it is being demanded by society. The redundancy and waste created by centralized human capital processes, disparate data, and fragmented systems. We have entered the more progressive era of decentralization. PERK combines decentralization with finance and industry expertise to solve these challenges. PERK’s unique and protected token utility serves as a borderless and permissionless medium of exchange, valued immutable record storage for companies and workers worldwide. PERK’s solutions include payment solutions for all human capital transactions, rewards for completing HR tasks such as recruitment, screening, and evaluations, and NFTs to store the value of everything from a statement of work to staffing services.
