Eu Workers agencies help client companies fill short-term staffing gaps. They interview potential candidates, weeding out unsuitable applicants and determining what skills they possess. They then assign temporary workers to work at the company based on the specific job description provided. Client companies pay the temp agency a fee based on each worker’s hourly wage. In addition, the temp agency is responsible for ensuring compliance with labor laws and managing payroll and tax withholding for temporary employees.
Many temp agencies specialize in certain industries and niches, such as computer help desk workers, data entry specialists, natural gas pipeline safety engineers and paralegals. Others are more general, offering a range of industry and office support jobs. Some even recruit highly specialized workers, such as doctors, for short-term projects.
How Temporary Workers Agencies Can Help You Land Your Dream Job
Unlike the permanent workforce, temporary workers are exclusive employees of the staffing agency. While the temporary worker is on assignment, they are under the supervision of their assigned supervisor at the client company and are not entitled to benefits like health insurance or vacation days. However, the temp worker will be required to complete a brief performance evaluation at the end of each assignment.
If the employer is pleased with a particular temporary worker, they can offer him or her a full-time job. This arrangement is known as a temp-to-hire placement and is a great way to evaluate an employee’s skills and fit for the role before making a commitment. This option is only available if the employer and candidate are both eligible for this arrangement, as per New York City’s Temporary Workers Act.
