HOW CAN SCOTIA HELP?
Why use temps?
Rapid Response
Get immediate shift coverage when you need it. Our streamlined process can match qualified drivers to specific runs, ensuring minimal disruption to your operations. Respond to market shifts and emerging opportunities while remaining lean and competitive for growth.
Sick leave & holidays
Fill staffing gaps when regular employees have emergencies, are on holiday, sick leave or take a leave of absence. Temporary staffing can step in within 15 minutes to maintain productivity and reputation and ensure business continuity.
Flexibility
Scale your workforce up or down on demand. Adapt and avoid long-term commitments with access to the best-quality candidates. Service seasonal peaks, employee absences, special projects or unexpected vacancies.
24/7/365
It doesn't matter if it's 2 am on a Sunday; our job is to have your back. We provide you with a round-the-clock service, so when there's no one available late on Christmas Eve to help with a last-minute contract, we're awake and ready to help.
Low-cost
Avoid the expenses associated with long-term employment, such as benefits, pensions, paid absences and training costs.
Business Expansion
If you are expanding to a new location or region, our temporary staff can help you establish a presence without immediately committing to a full-time workforce
Temporary to Permanent / Try Before You Hire
Hiring temporary staff can serve as a trial period to evaluate their performance and fit within your organisation. If they excel, you may offer them a permanent position.
Reputation Insurance
Avoid service interruption by using our staff at a moment's notice. Maintain up-time, avoid the risk to service reliability and the potential knock-on effects of disappointing clients.
Immediate Start
With fast onboarding, hit the ground running with experienced workers, requiring minimal training. Take the focus off staffing and contribute more to your business from day one, saving time, resources and capital.
Quality Assurance
We have rigorous screening and assessment procedures to ensure that our temporary drivers possess the qualifications, experience and professionalism to meet the high standards the logistics and haulage industry requires.
Specialised Skills
Temporarily introduced specialised skills and expertise into your organisation. This is especially beneficial for short-term projects, tenders, or tasks requiring specific licenses and experiences.
Plus, if there's a skill gap in your existing team, temporary staff can bridge the gap until you can train or hire a permanent employee with the specific expertise, qualifications and certification for the role.
Reduce Risks
Minimise risks. You can end our temporary staffing agreement anytime, especially if your demand subsides. Avoid having fixed permanent staff being underutilised during quieter times.
Reduce long-term obligations and potential legal or financial challenges in welcoming permanent staff into long-term contracts. Evaluate performance, suitability, and culture fit, reducing the risk of a poor hire. If they're a great fit, you can offer them a permanent position.
On-demand
Respond to market conditions and business growth with on-demand temporary staffing. This is particularly valuable for businesses with peak periods, seasonality or new product introductions where scalability and responsiveness are essential.
Less Admin
Lessen the HR workload as we handle the hiring process, paperwork and administrative tasks of payroll, benefits and taxes, saving you time, effort and HR workload.
