Euworkers is a great opportunity for people who want to work, but don’t want to be at one place all the time. Unlike part-time employees who have set hours, temps are hired on a contractual basis for a specific project or duration. They are often hired through staffing agencies and their contracts typically state that they will work 3,6,9 or 12 months at the company (this can vary). During this time, it is possible for a temp to be offered a permanent position if they have done well.

Temporary Employment for Retirees: Staying Active in the Workforce

There are many benefits to hiring temporary workers for both businesses and employees. For business leaders, it can create flexibility and agility within the organization. It’s an effective way to manage workload fluctuations and can also help companies save money by not paying for health-care benefits, vacation days or retirement contributions. Temporary workers can also provide access to specialized skills that aren’t available internally.

For employees, it offers them a chance to try out an organization and build their resume. They can also get a “psychological boost” from working for a short period of time and know that they have an income coming in while they are searching for a full-time job. It’s important for a worker to assess their comfort level with this type of employment, as it may not be the right fit for them. If they are unsure, they can always consult with a career counselor for further guidance.
