Use a Temporary Staffing Agency to Cover Summer Vacations
It’s that time of the year. The kids are out of school and your employees are itching to go on a summer vacation. You want them to enjoy some summer fun with time off but you’re concerned about how you’ll fill their place while they’re gone. Using a temporary staffing agency like PeopleFirst Staffing is an efficient and effective way to get the job done – literally! We’ve put together a list of benefits to using a temporary staffing agency to cover summer vacations.
Hire College Students Looking for Summer Jobs
Staffing agencies are full of college students and even recent graduates looking for temporary jobs during the summer while classes are on hiatus. Take advantage of this opportunity. Not only are you filling the open role but you could be giving them experience in their interested field. It’s a win-win!
A Morale Booster
It’s important to make sure employees have time off to relax and recharge. Bringing in an outside hire keeps their work from falling on another employee’s plate. Often when one person is out and there isn’t a solid system or back up in place, their work can tend to create bottlenecks that can slow and even stop productivity. Using a temporary staffing agency for a temporary hire can help pick up the slack and ensure your employees feel supported.
Use Temporary Hires More Often
Maybe you want to offer Fridays off for your staff in the summer but don’t want to weaken your customer service or slow production. A temporary hire can pick up these shifts. Have employees who have kids out of school for the summer? Hire a temp to cover their afternoon hours so they can save on childcare costs. Using a temporary agency for summer vacations in this way provides you with extra flexibility. Employees will appreciate that flexibility, too.
Bolster Your Reputation as a Company
Taking advantage of a temporary staffing agency in the previously mentioned ways can help earn you a reputation as an employer that cares about your staff. Your employees talk, so make sure they have positive things to say about their workplace environment.
