Drawing a competitive advantage from your firm’s human capital no longer pertains to merely finding, maintaining, and training the right employees.
Smarter firms are now managing people in such a way that helps them respond to changing market conditions faster and better than their competition. And they are incorporating the use of staffing agencies in their strategy.
Temporary workers help control operating costs because they allow companies to manage labor needs based on fluctuations in their own market demands. This employment model eliminates overstaffing and understaffing by providing the flexibility to add and reduce people quickly.
Temps also enable companies to be the first to reap the benefits of the latest technological advancements and respond to changes in government regulations. By bringing in someone who already possesses the knowledge and skills, companies can immediately implement the latest practices while they conduct a search for a permanent professional or train their current staffs.
