temp staffing

Hired help agency

Temp staffing is the practice of hiring workers through an agency for short-term or temporary positions rather than as permanent employees.

Companies use temp staffing to handle seasonal demand, fill in for absent workers, or avoid long-term commitments: The warehouse relies on temp staffing during the holiday rush.

The arrangement typically involves a staffing agency that employs the workers and assigns them to client businesses.
