Large companies and corporations are often faced with a "support staff" management problem. A lot of time and effort is wasted on the management of support staff such as drivers, telephone operators, secretaries, office assistants, temporary workers and consultants among others. Through the outsourcing services, the employer is relieved of the burden of personnel management. The outsourced staff usually receives the same benefits package as if they are working directly for the employer. GMS handles the payroll processing, salary tax payment, social security as well as medical and life insurance if requested.

     Personnel outsourcing is provisioned in two shapes: 

     1) Temporary Staffing

     Description:

  • Temporary replacements for absent employee

  • Short-term staffing for busy seasons or periods of peak productivity

  • Staff with specific skills required for special projects

  • Short-term contract employees

  • Replacements for permanent employees engaged in jobs outside the companies interest and core business. 

      Some of the most commonly requested areas of traditional temporary staffing include clerical/secretarial, word processing, data entry and switchboard operators, visa and work permit officers. In the field, other jobs required would be radio operators, storekeepers, maintenance and cleaning staff, drivers and operators among others. Though, many companies are using temporary staffing in every area of their operations, from operations, manufacturing and distribution to marketing, sales and administration. In the oil & gas, a typical application would be fielding of staff for maintenance, drilling, HSE, technical and other disciplines.

     Advantages:

  • Reduce labor costs and break the cycle of frequent hiring and layoffs by providing support only when and where needed.

  • Shift the burden of logistics support (visas, work permits, driving licenses… etc).

  • Smooth operations when your employees are on vacation or otherwise absent, provide special-project skill sets and increase your company’s ability to meet project deadlines.

  • Avoid costs and administrative burden of placing an ad, fielding responses, scheduling applicants appointments and braving a flood of interviews every time a candidate is required to fill in a certain vacancy.

     2) Personnel outsourcing 

     Description:

     To identify an employee whom you would like to be placed on the subcontractors payroll. This might include existing part-time employees, early retirement candidates, employees chosen for outplacement, former employee you want to bring back on contract basis or individuals selected to handle a special projects. 

  • The subcontractor handles every aspect of the payroll process, from implementing timekeeping procedures to delivering or depositing paychecks.

  • The subcontractor negotiates outplacements.

  • To avoid the administrative burden of putting a specific employee on your payroll by putting the employee on the subcontractors payroll for the duration of your need.

  • The management continues to review employee timecards and verify hours worked.

  • To retain your on-site accuracy and cost-control mechanism.

     Advantages:

  • Subcontractor assumes all legal obligations for all payroll service employee’s salaries, payroll deductions, and worker’s compensation, so you have peace of mind and reduce administrative time. You can be confident that payroll is being handled conscientiously by experienced payroll experts.

  • Subcontractor provides simple invoicing, including timecard copies, so your management can confirm invoicing accuracy and improve record keeping.

  • Subcontractor handles all payroll-related employee relations, from supplying customized enrollment packets to fielding payroll questions, this frees up your management and keeps daily employee interactions more focused on performance rather than on payroll issues.

  • Your managers and supervisors enjoy the simplicity of a single point of contact and the reliability of consistent, optimized payroll administration.

  • Your company shifts the legal burden of outplacements and terminations.
