English translation:insourcing and outsourcing of labour

Explanation:
Svårt att ge en bra översättning med så lite bakgrundsfakta. Jag tar det för osannolikt att arbetskraft bara lånas ut (utan betalning). Snarare hyrs den ut så handlar det om någon form av reciprokt avtal där arbetskraft byts mot betalning. Jag känner inte till något land där skattelagstifningen medger "lån" av arbetskraft.

Således tror jag att det handlar om köp, vilket innebär att "sourcing" är ett bra ord att utgå ifrån.

Reference: I would not say 'leasing' about manpower = people.

Reference information:
Hiring and hiring out maybe, but I don't like leasing people for some reason.
According tothe Concise Oxford Dictionary,

lease
n noun a contract by which one party conveys land, property, services, etc. to another for a specified time.
n verb
1 grant (property) on lease; let.
2 take (property) on lease; rent.

OK, services and manpower are close, but still not quite the same. Just a thought.
