How our Talented Temps can add value to your business - LHR Recruitment and Retention Lancashire UK

A temporary worker is brought into your workplace for short assignments, whether that be a single day or up to several months.

Here at LHR we often receive a call from a flustered client shouting “Help, we need someone… like yesterday!”

Temporary workers play an important role in many companies across almost all industries. In many areas of the permanent jobs market supply cannot meet demand and therefore utilising temp workers may help your business in the short term.

Why may you need a temp?

A member of your workforce calls in sick. For example your receptionist and you need someone immediately to cover.
To cover your current staff holidays especially at Easter and summer.
Sickness/Long term absence.
Maternity/Paternity cover.
Sudden departure of staff.
Peak season for example Christmas, especially within the retail industry.
