Temping has increasingly become an accepted way of earning a living. It can sometimes prove more lucrative than conventional employment and allows an individual the freedom to work when they choose. The greatest element of being a temp is the independence one enjoys compared to the confines of permanent employment.
Due to a growing number of enforced headcount restrictions, companies now turn to those in the workforce who have opted for the temp/interim/contracting route. This has given rise for the opportunity to learn new skills, new systems, operate within different cultures and maybe even develop a proficiency in a particular niche which may be the basis of many future assignments to come.
Holden Jones prides itself on forging genuine relationships with it’s clientele, thereby making you aware of all circumstances relating to the assignment – preparing you for the always slightly daunting first day, no matter how short the assignment may be.
Temping with Holden Jones entitles you to holiday pay, as introduced by the Working Time Directive, which is included within your hourly rate. We supply the customary time sheets for you to complete on a weekly basis but also have an electronic copy on this site (possible link here) if you would prefer.
Remember that whilst you temp, you benefit from actually being paid for the hours that you work – unlike those in permanent employment whose contract has the wonderful line ‘ hours deemed necessary to complete your tasks’.
Temping with Holden Jones is a simple process handled by professional, sensitive consultants striving to build a long term partnership with you, so that you get the most of your chosen lifestyle.
