Platinum Travel Recruitment can help businesses and organisations access the skills and experience they need, in good time, without breaking the bank. This allows employers to free up time and monetary resources to help drive the business forward.
Reduced costs
While firms might have to provide benefits such overtime pay to temporary workers, they can save on potential benefits such as holiday and sick pay and other income benefits reserved for full-time and part-time workers.
Morale boost
Temporary employees can help the overall workplace mood. When employees work double shifts, nights and weekends, and to take on extra responsibilities and roles because you’re shorthanded, morale can decrease rapidly. Employees can get stressed, become exhausted and burn out. Offering extra help during your company’s busiest periods ensures your core team stays happy and productive.
It can lead to meaningful hires
Finding employees that are the right fit for your workplace is always a challenge.
Temporary employees can provide employers with the chance to evaluate workers over a longer period of time without committing to a permanent offer.
It can also alleviate some of the urgency associated with filling an opening in permanent staff, having a short-term employee in place during your recruitment process ensures companies can then take their time locating the perfect hire.
There are a number of quality temporary candidates available who are looking for an opportunity to prove their worth to an organisation and be converted over to a permanent status. These individuals are eager to show off their knowledge and skills and typically are productive at a high level.
Try before You buy
Companies can spend weeks, if not months, on the hiring process to find a new employee only to realise that after training, that it is not the right fit, resulting in a high employee turnover. This means restarting the hiring process all over again.
Temporary hire offers employers the opportunity to evaluate the new workers in action, without the financial commitment of a permanent job offer. It also offers the workers the chance to evaluate if the company and the job is right for them. This can lead to more successful, long-term hires.
Overall, temporary workers can bring new ideas, improve processes and contribute to a diverse, dynamic and successful business culture. They can bring competitive advantage and save you money.
