What it offers

  • ability to find and hire a worker using an agency
  • hire of a specific person using an agency (‘nominated worker’)
  • a managed service provider who will take on your temporary staff needs
  • breakdown of rates agencies charge
  • downloadable shortlist of agencies based on your needs
  • calculation of the maximum you could be charged to make your agency worker permanent

Benefits

  • transparent mark-ups
  • avoid temp-to-perm fees
  • completed background and safeguarding checks

All frameworks also offer:

  • compliance with the relevant procurement regulations
  • suppliers pre-checked by the approved framework provider
