What To Look For In Construction Staffing Agencies
Payroll, Benefits and Insurance. Dean Austin Kinslow Some of the most important considerations to make when selecting a construction staffing agency is how payroll is handled, and does the company handle all of the insurance claims and employee benefits. Larger staffing companies have the tendency to calculate a percentage of payroll in their final invoice, making pricing confusing in the initial proposal. Examine the proposal carefully for hidden fees. Make sure you understand everything that will be covered in the final invoice and that the agency is very clear about what is included. Rarely will you find such experts in the construction staffing industry that are so proficient in the areas of workers’ compensation, payroll administration, risk management and government and tax compliance.
References and credentials. As with any new hire, missing this important step in the hiring process can be disastrous. You want to make sure the staffing agency you choose has a reputation for excellence. Do your homework and don’t forget this very important step. Ask the agency for references. Construction staffing agencies should have clients that will speak positively about partnering with them.
Construction staffing companies give you the flexibility to keep your project staffed during peak seasons or when you need someone to fill in at the last minute due to unexpected illnesses and/or injury. But not all companies are the same, and with skilled labor in high demand these days, labor staffing companies are popping up all over the United States. With hundreds to choose from, you need to be sure that you are working with the best partner.
