Benefits
With the ever increasing cost and complexity of recruitment and the potential
cost of terminating employees, more and more employers are turning to contract
staff as a solution to the problem of maintaining a workforce.
The benefits to employers include:
- Flexibility. The workforce can be increased or reduced at short notice without
additional cost.
- Training. The client knows that all staff engaged will undergo formal
induction including necessary OH & S training.
- Workcover. The workcover record of the client is not negatively impacted
should a contract employee make a claim because they are not the "employer" for
workcover purposes.
- Cost. The administrative cost in employee record keeping is removed for the
client.
- Taxes and Levies. The requirement to pay such taxes and levies as PAYG tax,
pay-roll tax, superannuation and the like are passed to Workforce Extensions and
so the client is relieved of the need to make these payments.
