Would you like to talk to us about your recruitment needs?
Contracting temporary workers offer companies many advantages. These are the most important ones:
1. More flexibility
If a company hires a recruitment agency to find somebody for a permanent position, they will be stuck with that agency in case the employee decides to leave or if he doesn’t fit. By contract, they will need to hire the same agency to find a replacement.
2. Temporary workers are not part of the head count
It often happens that companies foresee that will need someone for a certain position in the near future, but for corporate reasons they cannot hire a permanent employee. A temporary worker can be a good alternative, because he or she will not be carried on the payroll of the company. Once greenlight is sent by the headquarters, you can always decide to offer a permanent contract.
3. You don´t have to manage the payroll
Especially for smaller companies, that don´t have a big HR department it can be load of their shoulders if they can outsource all the administration.
5. Fast hires make an immediate difference
If you have regular employee absences that are affecting the productivity of your business, or you need to cover maternity leave, or have seasonal demands like peak season, hiring a temp, interim or contractor, eliminates the need to appoint a permanent resource that isn’t required all year-round.
6. Temporay workers can also be project specialists
Many temps have special skillsets and are perfect for short-term assignments. For example, interim managers are often sought after to fill the gap within critical management situations, a temp may be brought in to cover maternity leave or an administrative assignment, or at peak periods. Contractors bring a level of expertise to a defined project for a designated period of time, as set in their contract.
