The True Cost Savings of Hiring Temps
Posted on 06/05 by Erin Helms
Have you been considering working with a temp agency to supplement your workforce but are unsure if your company would really benefit? Here’s why temp workers could be just the answer you need right now and how a staffing company like LaborMAX can help you find temp employees quickly.
Lower Your Cost of Recruitment
Instead of spending resources on reviewing resumes, conducting interviews, calling references and onboarding a new full-time employee, a temp employee is someone who is assigned to your company to perform specific tasks for a set length of time. There are no costs of recruitment or onboarding; you don’t have to pay benefits; you don’t have to conduct lengthy training and go through the orientation process. A temp employee will be recommended by a staffing company, like LaborMAX, and can come in ready to do the jobs they’ve been tasked with completing. The staffing company manages all of these time-consuming tasks.
Your Company has More Flexibility
Unlike regular permanent employees, a temp comes in, does the job for as long as they’re needed, and then they go on to the next assignment. If someone isn’t working out, they can be reassigned out of your company.
Get The Skills You Need Right Away
It can be difficult to find someone with niche abilities for a permanent position, especially if the job might not last longer than a few weeks or months; staffing firms like LaborMAX are well-versed in helping highly qualified people find jobs that suit their backgrounds, even if the position might only last a short time.
