  I'M SEEKING STAFF

We know you want to hire well. McQueen & Associates work closely with you, so you can continue your busy schedule while we manage recruitment and evaluation.

Why use temporary help service?

  • Because over 50% of your business expenses are related to personnel…including fringe benefits, absenteeism, recruitment and turnover.
  • Full time employee benefits average $4,000 per year, per employee.
  • You need to staff up for 'peak', and cut back for 'valley' periods.
  • Overtime expenses take a large chunk out of profits, and productivity is lower during overtime hours.
  • Routine jobs create an employer burden as turnover and recruitment rates increase.
  • Eliminate absenteeism-you pay only for work performed by the temporary service.

"Nine out of ten companies now use temporary help services. When cost conscious managers use sound, practical business management approaches, that means savings, not costs, are passed on to the customer" …..Linda McQueen, President.
