Temporary Recruitment Solutions

Among employment agencies in Canada, Adecco temporary recruitment and staffing services are unsurpassed for impact on your bottom line.

Why use contract and temporary staffing services?
Approximately 75% of all business expenses are related to recruitment, hiring, turnover, benefits and absenteeism. Adecco provides recruitment and staffing solutions for temporary employees and other forms of flexible staffing, with five ways to reduce costs and optimize your human resource ROI.

• Absenteeism Savings - Our clients pay only for the work that is performed by Adecco temporary employees.
• Turnover and Recruitment Costs Savings - Adecco employment agency manages all employee recruitment and turnover activity.
• "As Needed" Hiring - Clients use temporary staff during peak business periods, eliminating high payroll expenditures during low business periods.
• Overtime Savings - Clients can save on high overtime costs and maintain peak production by having additional temporary employees working shorter hours and/or during peak busy hours.
• Training Cost Savings - Adecco tests applicant knowledge, skills and personality with Xpert®, our web-based system, and can provide some job-specific training, having a positive impact on the client's bottom line.

What is temporary help?
Adecco hires its own temporary employees and assigns them to work as part of a client's workforce for a specified time period. We maintain the employer-employee relationship, and we are responsible and obligated as the employer throughout the employment period. A business agreement is created with the client, which sets out a service fee and includes a guarantee period as client insurance.

Temporary to permanent employment
When a client advises Adecco that a temporary employee assignment may lead to permanent employment with their company, the agreement for this type of service is based on a combination of the length of the temporary assignment and a permanent placement fee.

As your employment agency, Adecco goes beyond expectations before, during and after every placement to ensure a good fit.

We believe that Adecco’s temporary staffing services set the industry standard for employment agencies in Canada. The search process in employee recruitment can be lengthy and varies in its complexity and scope. Based on a client's expectations and specifications, the following are steps that should be performed by an employment agency providing recruitment solutions on your behalf:

• Set up meetings with human resources and hiring managers to understand the recruitment and staffing needs.
• Do extensive research and networking.
• Do media and web advertising.
• Perform assessments, evaluations and interviews with potential candidates.
• Facilitate personality profiling to determine the correct fit for the individual and the company.
• Negotiate on behalf of clients and candidates.
• Prepare and counsel candidates.
• Schedule and prepare clients and candidates for interviews.
• Perform reference checks and credit checks when required.
• Ensure continuous follow-through after a placement.
