Not only do the staffing, recruiting and workforce solution industry make a vital contribution to the U.S. economy, but 9 out of 10 staffing employees are satisfied with their staffing company [2]. To business owners, this equate to better quality employees and more day-to-day productivity. But the benefits of utilizing a staffing service don’t stop there – here are 5 benefits to hiring a staffing agency:
1. Expertise. Not only do staffing agencies have direct experience with many niche industries, but they are also skilled at recognizing the right candidate when they encounter one. Like a strategic partner, staffing agencies can evaluate your talent needs based on industry trends.
2. Talent Network. Staffing agencies have a database of vetted professionals who can quickly and efficiently fill positions, regardless of whether they are permanent, seasonal, contract or temp hires. Businesses that need to fill a position in a pinch can depend on staffing agencies for when employees call out or do not show up.
3. Time & Money Saved. Screening and interviewing potential candidates are both time-consuming parts of the hiring process. Partnering with a staffing agency will not only help you eliminate the excessive amount of time and money you have to spend every time a position needs to be filled, but it will also allow you to focus your time on more important things.
4. Reduce Risk. Staffing agencies can shift the direct and potential risks that come with handling employees by covering workers compensation, payroll, taxes, and unemployment claims. They are also more thorough at screening applicants for the proper experience, background and work documentation.
5. Support. Staffing agencies will not only provide on-going support to your employees through consistent training, but they can also benefit your business by reducing any internal friction that can arise between staff and management.
