What is Contracting / Staffing?
The term contracting refers to a range of situations in
which a person works for a company who is not his/her employer.
Contracting is sometimes referred to as: contingent staffing,
just-in-time staffing, interim executives, payrolling, outsourcing,
flexible staffing, temporary employment, independent contractors,
job shoppers, etc.
Why Companies Utilize Contract IT Staffing or Telecommunication
Staffing
1. Staffing Flexibility
Match your staffing levels with your workload and project
requirements
Quick setup process vs. lengthy direct placement cycle
Option to terminate contract placement at anytime
2. Maintain Budget Controls
Accelerate the pace at which projects reach completion by
adding contract staffing
Eliminate unnecessary overhead
3. Increase Staffing Alternatives
Client companies have access to a new pool of highly skilled
resources
Temporary/Contract candidates are often more specialized
but unavailable for direct placement
1099 independent contractors can become our contracting
employees to ensure IRS Compliance
Retiree re-staffing allows client companies to bring back
the expertise of former employees that have retired
Utilize internships and summer employees
4. Sole-Source Staffing Ability
Decrease the number of vendors to manage
Reduce administrative responsibilities
One-stop shopping for all staffing needs
Access to contract candidates nationwide
5. Try Before You Buy (Temp-To-Direct)
"Interview" the candidate while he or she is an employee
of ours
Evaluate how the candidate fits the client company's "corporate
culture"
Access the "real" skills of the prospective employee before
making a direct hire commitment
Acquire needed resource before direct placement budget is
approved
6. Reduce
Employee Costs
When Client Companies
follow our contracting contractual guidelines there are:
No Workers' Compensation Claims
No Unemployment Claims
No employee benefits cost, such as medical insurance, life
insurance, retirement and pension plan contributions
No employee benefits administration
No added expenses for paid time off, such as holidays, vacations,
sick time and personal time
No administrative costs for hiring such as: advertising,
recruiting, interviewing, and processing hiring paperwork
No expenses or administration associated with payroll withholding
and deductions to collect, pay, administer, and report
Minimal risks of misclassifying an independent contractor
(1099), subjecting client company to IRS and state audits
Less training and supervising costs
7. Minimize Human Resources
Headaches
Outsource staffing requirements to
avoid having to expand administrative support personnel
Daily problem resolution for our employees handled by us
(i.e. paperwork, benefits, paycheck questions)
8. Reduce Insurance Liability
We are the employer and this minimizes
a Client Company's exposure when contract staffing services
are provided
9. Eliminated "Bad" Press from
Layoffs
Avoid the impact on employee morale
associated with downsizing employees
Changes in contract staffing levels at a client company
will not draw publicity
