Companies will often “Payroll” a person through my office. What does that mean?
Simply, when a company would like us to assume the liability for an employee (their taxes, insurance, potential unemployment, worker’s compensation, etc) they may send them to our office asking us to put them on our payroll and contract them directly back to them. In short, “payroll them”. This can be a huge plus for a company, who is able to try out potential candidates before selecting the one(s) they wish to hire long-term.
The crucial difference is that we did not search and find this individual, the company did. Therefore, we charge companies a reduced rate for the indivudal so that we can cover our liabilities. It saves complications and money for the employer, the contractor, and us. It is a win/win/win all around the board.
Also, if a company determines they want to hire the person directly to their own payroll (and off ours), there is no fee.
Could we help augment your staffing needs through leveraging our payroll services? Let me know!
