You just got word that your bid was accepted for a huge new project in Spokane. But now you’re worried that you don’t have the necessary staff in place to get the job done. What can you do?

Consider contract staffing.

Contract staffing offers an effective strategy for controlling costs, reducing risk, and accessing the specialized skills you need to complete your project.

When to Use Contract Staffing

Contract staffing is ideal when:

• You need a very specific skill set on a temporary basis
• Your organizational capacity is strained
• You need help for a limited amount of time
• You don’t have time for a full recruiting effort
• Your turnaround time for a project is tight

Benefits of Contract Staffing

• Tap into specialized skills fast. You can gain access to the expert you need almost immediately.

• Eliminate risk. You don’t have to worry about things like payroll taxes, unemployment benefits, liability insurance, and workers compensation since the contractor works for the Spokane staffing firm, not for you.

• Try before you buy. You’ll be able to try out talent on a contract basis; if things go well, you may want to consider hiring the contractor full time.

• No fixed costs. There are no fixed costs associated with a contract employee. Once the project is complete, simply release the individual.
