Staffing is the number one challenge of businesses in any industry. The time and money spent on advertising, recruiting, interviewing and running back ground checks alone, can take an entire department. After someone is hired, you then have to provide payroll services, conduct training and cover costs like benefits, earned time, and worker’s compensation insurance. If you own or operate a small business, you may not have the resources for a Human Resources (HR) Department. Trying to find, interview, hire, and train staff on your own can be a nightmare. The results can be high turnover, inconsistent performance and decreased productivity. That can end up costing you more money than an HR department would.
Employment Services can provide you the staffing you need and save you money on HR costs. First, consulting services can develop a specific plan to find you the qualified staff you need to operate your business efficiently. Recruiting, interviewing, and background checks are done by the employment services agency. Hiring and training is also conducted by them and not you. You are not the direct employer so you have none of the associated costs of payroll, benefits or insurances. You can try out staff on a temporary basis and see if they are going to work out. If they do, you can then hire them as fully trained personnel. You can also take people on full time and permanently if you choose to do so.
Employment Services can also provide testing and evaluation, professional and executive placements and safety consultation. You can reduce costs and turnover while increasing consistency, productivity, and regulatory compliance. Most agencies, like The Arnold Group, for example, have experts in HR who can find you the best qualified staff across any industry. You will not have to worry about advertising or recruiting personnel for entry level or management positions. The time and money you save can be used to keep your business competitive in a global market. Look at your current human resource costs and turnover rate and determine if those numbers work for your company. If they do, wonderful. If they do not, consider using employment services to help in that area.
