Why hire under contract?
  • It is highly likely you will save money overall. I know, I know it’s hard to wrap your mind around paying a larger hourly rate, retainer, or a larger contracted dollar amount, however, the expenses behind hiring can be much greater including; fees incurred by utilizing a staffing agency, benefits, taxes, unemployment compensation insurance, workers compensation insurance, additional office space, equipment and so on.


Evaluating the true cost of an employee hire:

Figures are estimated: $30,000 base salary. $5,000+ in benefits and PTO. $2,000+ Social Security and Medicare Taxes. $2,000 in Federal Unemployment Tax. $2,500 State Unemployment Tax.
ESTIMATED TOTAL: Approx. $41,500 (not including overhead) OUCH!

  • Flexibility in allotted hours and work on demand. Each task can be completed as needed likely with a higher productivity. When the job is done the contract is completed, allowing for cost control.
  • Greater efficiency. Contract workers come specialized in particular task sets hire within the range of skills offered to maximize your dollars. This is also a cost reduction for the hiring company as time is not needed to be spent on training of a new employee.
