Classification
Types
- The Dealer often acts as a staffing firm. Those Dealers that place workers temporarily are called temp agencies and temporary employees are called contingency workers. Some government employment offices may also place specified categories of workers such as disabled and/or senior workers and other protected groups.
Dealers vs employment agencies
- Both the Dealers and employment agencies deliver employment placements. However, their delivery models are the opposite.
- The Dealers hire the workers directly. Legally, the Dealers act as employers, while charging their clients for services of their employees. Employment agencies don't hire the workers. These agencies offer their clients workers for hire, while charging their clients recruitment fees. Their clients either act as employers or hire the workers directly as independent contractors.
