Are you looking to partner with a staffing company?

What are the values and advantages of ANY staffing agency?Regardless of agency, there are core values that should be followed to provide the basic pillars of staffing. Any staffing agency of reputation should efficiently provide the following:

Access to a Pool of Pre-Vetted Candidates: Time and resources are saved by working with a staffing agency equipped with a database of qualified, pre-screened candidates across various industries and skill sets. A good staffing agency has a pool of workers of different levels and abilities to utilize.

Fast and Flexible Staffing Solutions: Regardless of need, be it temporary, part-time, or full-time employees, an agency should provide quick, flexible staffing solutions to meet any business needs, even during peak seasons or urgent situations.

Reduced Risks and Liability: The mitigation of risk in the hiring by ensuring candidates are well matched, reducing turnover, and helping businesses find the right cultural and technical fit. High retention rates should be the goal. Although 100% retention is almost impossible, it should remain the target. Any unfit candidates are easily replaced without the pain of the firing process. Many staffing agencies also assume responsibility for workers’ compensation, unemployment claims, and other legal liabilities associated with employees, reducing administrative burden and risk.

Immediate Cost-Effectiveness: By reducing recruitment costs, overhead, and time spent on screening candidates, staffing solutions offer a more efficient and affordable alternative to in-house hiring allowing the customer to save on time and effort to recruit interview, and hire a candidate. This directly converts to a time/money equation.

What are the Cons of using ANY staffing agency?
As there are advantages that all staffing agencies look to uphold, there also can be inherent disadvantages. While there are disadvantages to temporary staffing, it is the job of a staffing agency to mitigate these and soften their impact on the customer. Some disadvantages are as follows.

Long-Term Cost-Effectiveness: Staffing agencies make the bulk of their income from the markup percentage charged on their employees' salaries. The longer an employee is working within a specific facility the less cost-effective they can become. It is up to the customer to determine if the employee's performance is worth the added cost associated with them. As time passes, the “immediate cost-effectiveness” mentioned above begins to get eaten by the markup of the agency.

Less Direct Control: Outsourcing the hiring process means there is less control over how candidates are sourced, screened, and selected, which may result in a misalignment with a company’s culture or specific needs. Although hiring requirements can be laid out, there is no guarantee that any one candidate fits those requirements. Background checks, drug screenings, and E-Verify can help mitigate some risks but often carry added costs in time and money.

Binding Contracts/Agreements: The agreed-upon terms between an agency and an employer may seem agreeable at the time of signing, but cannot predict the ebbs and flows of business. The success or failure of a business changes how favorable terms can be for a customer, and can be faced with difficult negotiations with an agency where their only bargaining tool would be the termination of a partnership. This inherently is a cumbersome and disruptive process.
