Temporary Workforce Management: An Employer’s View Tuesday 16th April 2013 Rob Crossland CEO
Temporary Workforce Management Solutions • Parasol is the UK’s leading professional employment organisation • Fully compliant – AWR, Pensions Auto Enrolment • ClearSky Accounting provides Limited company accountancy services • Successfully navigated significant legislative changes e.g. MSC, IR35 • Fully prepared for the introduction of RTI in April 2013 • Founder member of the FCSA – the most robust accreditation in the industry with a transparent code of conduct
Characteristics of Temps • Often placed in volume • Relatively unsophisticated • Unlikely to “get” Umbrella or PSC / Limited • End client often dictates method of engagement • Priority is to get paid promptly • Not afraid to raise grievances • Often unionised • Therefore management of temps is: • Operationally costly and high on risk
Why not “just” use Agency PAYE? • Need to do the calculations & do them right • Got to employ the workers • HR risks, forever increasing with new legislation • Increased admin and cost • It’s complex & it’s not an RPO’s specialty
Bespoke solutions needed • One size does not fit all • End clients will have different views & policies on for example: • Holiday pay • AWR • Pensions Auto Enrolment • Often need to offer multiple bespoke solutions for the same end client • The core solution will always be an Employment Solution • “Lite”is never practical or compliant
Importance of being scalable • Need a partner with robust systems and processes • Drive down costs but retain flexibility • On-board workers en masse • A partner who can offer solutions to all workers • Temp • Umbrella • Limited Company • A partner with compliance in its DNA • A partner who can handle all HR issues
Key benefits of choosing Parasol • Proven track record of delivering in this space • No employment risk to the RPO, agency partner or end client • Brand/reputation secure now and in the future • Ability to offer multiple, flexible and bespoke solutions • Relationship with just ONE partner • Significant savings in costs and man-hours • ROI based value proposition • Happy, loyal & productive workers on site with clients • Reduce churn, establish long term relationships • All HR issues resolved by Parasol directly • Zero Management Cost
