Temporary Staffing
Temporary hiring works best when assignment duration, supervisor responsibilities and work conditions are clear before someone starts. This page provides a practical preparation framework for employers and candidates.
Write an assignment brief
Specify the work location, shift pattern, assignment dates, skills, supervision and any equipment or site-safety requirements. Describe how extensions or early completion will be communicated.
- Confirm the contractual arrangement and pay terms in writing.
- Identify the on-site supervisor and escalation contact.
- Explain induction and required credentials.
Match and assess fairly
Assess candidates against the actual work. Make reasonable accommodations where applicable and give candidates realistic information about hours and job duties.
- Use a consistent screening rubric.
- Avoid unnecessary collection of sensitive personal information.
- Confirm candidate availability before making commitments.
Monitor the assignment
Check attendance, safe working conditions and feedback through agreed contacts. Keep a record of agreed changes and close the assignment with timely administrative handover.
- Share first-day reporting instructions.
- Document extension or completion decisions.
- Collect feedback from both the worker and supervisor.
