Why are Businesses Turning to Staffing Firms During this Economic Downturn?

Staffing firms actually help businesses save money by the eliminating all the prescreening and sourcing for their HR staff. This time consuming process is reduced to just a few selected interviews with candidates that fully qualified, including background and reference checks. Knowing the company’s corporate culture and intricate details of each department, allows the staffing company to select the best possible candidates in the marketplace.

Staffing firms reduce the employment costs for companies by absorbing all payroll liability and costly benefits for employees. This allows companies time to make good hiring decisions after a candidate has actually been working on the job for three months before to bring them on as full time company employees.

With unemployment costs on the rise, it’s critical that companies have the ability to evaluate an employee’s performance before risking the extended unemployment costs if they are not a good fit. The staffing company is totally responsible for all unemployment claims and time consuming hearings.

Most staffing firms do complete background checks and drug testing before employees are hired on a full time basis. This ensures all employees are screened before they even start their first assignment. Businesses don’t have to worry about co-employment issues of screening themselves. Businesses can feel assured that they have the best employees working for them, even if it’s on a part time or temporary position which can work into full time after the candidate has a proven track record.

Staffing firms should be well acquainted with their client managers, so that the company makes better hiring decisions. A quality staffing company should assist their clients in providing free outsourcing services to reduce unemployment claims by assisting past employees in transitioning to new careers. Depending on the size of the company, an assigned account manager would be on call 24/7 to assist you with emergency weekend or after business hours recruiting.

All staffing firms should educate themselves about your business, analyzes your procedures, and provide staffing solutions that are profitable, measurable and attainable
