Temporary staffing: An ideal arrangement for companies, staffing firms, and employees

Temporary staffing refers to a staffing arrangement where a person is employed by a contract staffing solutions provider but is deputed to work at a client’s place full-time. For all effective purposes, the person is an employee of the client but is on the payroll of the staffing firm. This is an arrangement that suits organizations as they can reduce staff on their payroll.
There is no doubt that temporary staffing is an ideal arrangement for all the parties concerned. For companies, it is beneficial to use temp staffing for the following reasons:
1)    Companies can reduce their staff strength. This will help them lessen the administrative burden of managing employee records, payroll, and other regulatory requirements.
2)    Companies can hire people to work for them as and when they have a requirement for work. This ensures that they don’t need to pay employees who have no work or put them on the bench for long periods.
3)    If the company is not satisfied with an employee’s performance, terminating him/her involves lot of procedures. This is not the case for temp staff who can be removed or even replaced instantly.
Temp staffing may seem disadvantageous for employees but the fact is that it is beneficial for them too:
1)    Employees get a job and can be on the payroll of a staffing firm and work with reputed companies. This helps them gain experience.
2)    They can get the benefit of working at different organizations giving them wider exposure.
3)    Since the work depends on projects or assignments, it gives them free time to pursue other vocations.
The firm that provides contract staffing solutions would find temp staffing very handy:
1)    The firm can hire qualified people and depute them to different companies. It helps them to cater to the need of different firms.
2)    They would get paid well to take care of all the administrative processes.
3)    In the process, they can create a pool of qualified people and build a clientele.
Temp staffing is an ideal arrangement for companies, staffing firms, and employees and benefits them all.
