    Our Services

    On-Hired Services
    Under the labour hire arrangement, WE provide workers for your company and take responsibility for all elements of the worker’s remuneration. Workers may be provided on a casual, part time, full time or on-going basis. Under this arrangement, we will recruit, select and induct suitable staff and retain these staff as employees, on-hired to your business. Workforce Extensions pays all wages and entitlements, superannuation, payroll tax, workers compensation insurance and PAYG withholding. An hourly rate of hire is invoiced to your business on the basis of hours paid to the employee from a duly authorised timesheet. On-hired agencies can be your on-hand professionals providing sophisticated staffing solutions while keeping those staffing problems off your desk. By using an on-hired staffing agency your business will have instant access to a team of human resources professionals with a depth of experience in recruitment, as well as a range of innovative recruitment sources and a tried and tested suite of value-add selection tools.
