Both internal and external forces can create new, unforeseen gaps in the capacity of your workforce. Reasons for requiring temporary staff could be:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Short-term project work that needs to be completed<\/li>\n<li>Tight deadlines that require extra resources<\/li>\n<li>Knowledge or skills gaps while a permanent position is vacant<\/li>\n<li>Maternity\/paternity cover<\/li>\n<li>Sickness cover<\/li>\n<li>Holiday cover<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You should have a clear idea of what the need is before approaching a recruitment company for temporary staff.<\/p>\n<h3>Outline the job role<\/h3>\n<p>Temp staff will often be working on similar tasks to permanent staff , so you may think the job specification will be the same. However, it\u2019s important to draw up a new job specification to detail the temporary role, as there will always be some key differences in what is expected of them. It\u2019s also worth noting that there\u2019s a <a href=\"https:\/\/tiger-recruitment.com\/us\/employers-and-hiring-practice-us\/five-key-differences-between-a-job-ad-and-a-job-description\/\">difference between a job ad and a job description<\/a>!<\/p>\n<h3>Identify the right candidate<\/h3>\n<p>By this point, you\u2019ve approached a temp recruitment agency and spoken to a consultant about your needs.
