The good news is your business is growing by leaps and bounds. The bad news? You now have more work than you can handle. But you’re not sure you can sustain this new demand, so hiring full time employees is out of the question.
What are your options?
One of the easiest and most effective ways for your Jackson business to overcome a staffing bind is to partner with a temporary staffing agency. If you’ve never worked with one in the past, here are five reasons you should consider partnering with an agency today:
Flexibility. With a temporary staffing agency, you can get the people you need for a few days, few weeks or a few months. You can have a temporary worker fill in for an employee on sick or maternity leave, or simply cover during busy times. You may even find a worker that fits that position so well you want to eventually hire them full time.
Savings. When you work with a temporary staffing agency, you don’t have to worry about paying for health insurance, employee taxes, retirement benefits and unemployment expenses. The staffing agency handles these administrative costs, while still giving you access to the hardworking people you need. This is not only a huge savings in money, but in your time as well.
Expertise. Recruiters at temporary staffing agencies typically have extensive expertise related to recruiting, screening and training best practices, as well as employment trends because they are constantly sourcing, evaluating and placing employees. Many also have specific industry experience and specialize in certain fields.
More time. Your business may not have a dedicated HR department or recruiters. Or your HR department may already be understaffed and overworked. If this is the case, a temporary staffing agency can handle the entire screening and hiring process for you. As a result, you and your core employees can focus on other business priorities, while still getting access to high-quality temporary workers.
A larger candidate network. Thanks to a robust candidate network, many temporary staffing agencies already have workers ready to go who have been prescreened and identified as skilled and reliable. A staffing agency can, therefore, fill your position in a matter of hours or days.
Temporary staffing is a great option when you need extra help, but don’t want to add to your overhead. With it, you can get the talent you need, where and when you need it, and continue to watch your business grow.
