YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY, WE HAVE THE CONTRACTORS
Flexible staffing saves your business money. A permanent employee not only costs their salary, but typically around 33% on top of that in other costs, such as sick pay, holidays, national insurance, training and other benefits. Having the ability to flex your workforce can be more cost effective for your business, temporarily bringing a reprieve to busy periods or adding in expertise that you don’t require on a full-time basis.
