We Also Offer:
We offer you LOW-RISK WORKFORCE ALTERNATIVES. We take care of recruitment, screening, referencing, and credentialing. The professional is our employee, covered under our PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE. If you are not satisfied with the employees performance, we work with you to problem-solve. If that is not successful, we will promptly remove the employee and seek immediate replacement.
Your Cost:
The most common method is a pre-arranged fee per hour for each professional placed with you, based on the position classification and qualifications you want of the professional. These hourly employees keep weekly time sheets.
Our creativity extends to our pricing options. We have successfully worked within existing and limited agency budgets to create the right solution.
