Is your company struggling to meet year-end goals, growing at a rapid pace, and unable to quickly hire workers, or do you have an upcoming busy season where your organization typically struggles? Whatever today’s challenges may be, you can leverage temporary staffing solutions to quickly rightsize your workforce and keep things humming seamlessly along.
Among the scenarios where temporary employees can help include project-based work with specific deadlines; short-term, unexpected staffing shortages; seasonal peaks and valleys in customer requirements, and the need to “test drive” new skills or roles before committing to permanent hires.
Temporary workers can help your business to quickly and accurately scale by providing:
Flexibility
With temporary staffing, you can scale your workforce up and down based on real-time demand. This is especially critical for industries with fluctuating production needs, like manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics.
- You can take on new projects or clients without overextending your resources. By rounding out your team with temporary workers, you don’t have to worry about overburdening your permanent staff or incurring the costs associated with hiring people full-time.
Cost Effectiveness
Because they are paid hourly and their benefits are covered by your staffing firm partner, temporary employees can be much more cost-effective than permanent hires.
Additional cost savings stem from training, unemployment insurance, and severance packages – none of which need to come out of your company budget. Also, you don’t have to carry costs associated with job advertising or other recruitment needs.
Access to Specialized Skills
Certain projects may require specialized skills not available within your current workforce. Working with your staffing firm, you can source temps who bridge these critical skills gaps.
- An added bonus: If it turns out you need them permanently, you can test them out and if all goes well, recruit them full-time at the end of their temporary or contractual period.
A Focus on Core Competencies While Outsourcing Non-Essential Tasks
As you match workers to specific job requirements, you can dedicate your in-house subject matter experts to the assignments they do best – and thus drive ongoing business growth – while qualified temps handle the rest of your business needs.
