The staffing industry is changing, and as a result, direct placement recruiters are turning to contract staffing companies. Contract staffing could prove beneficial for companies looking for improved cash flow and better relationships with clients. For organizations that are uninitiated with contract staffing, there’s nothing to fret. In contract staffing, there is only one additional step for the recruiter when compared to direct placement. This includes determining who is responsible for the basic tasks and functions such as employee on boarding paperwork, payroll funding and processing, taxes, insurance, collections, and ACA compliance issues. Organizations can either choose to handle these tasks themselves or outsource all of the burden to contract staffing companies.
