Looking for new employees can be expensive and time-consuming. Not just in terms of money, but also in terms of time. That's why it pays to delegate tasks to an experienced partner with industry experience.
General questions
Does the temp speak Danish?
We provide both Danish and international temps. As a rule, our international temps do not speak Danish, but can communicate in English or German. We assess the temporary workers' skills based on a general language test, and of course we always make sure to choose temporary workers who have both the skills and experience to know how to solve the tasks they are hired for.
I need temporary workers in several locations - in Odense, Kolding, Aarhus. And occasionally in Vejle: Can you deliver labor to the whole country?
We can. No matter where in the country you need workers, we can help. We make sure to recruit temporary workers in the local area or locate our temps near the workplace, saving you transportation costs and avoiding out-of-pocket expenses.
Is a temporary worker a cheaper option than hiring a regular employee?
No, it is not. We follow the Danish Temporary Workers Act, which means that temporary workers must be paid the same salary as other employees doing the same work. On the other hand, a temp is always a more flexible solution that you can use when you need extra manpower for a period of time.
How much does it cost to hire the wrong agency?
Hiring a temp agency that doesn't know the rules and regulations can be expensive. Or one that cuts corners. This can result in fines and back-payments of salary and allowances. At Procur, we have the professional qualifications and a "nerdy" interest in doing things right. We know the rules - and we follow them. Every time.
What is the cost of labor shortages?
When you're short of workers, it can be costly for your business. A machine not running, overtime completion or late delivery is certainly more expensive than using temporary workers. We're happy to help with extra manpower when you're extra busy.
Why is recruitment help a good idea?
When you use Procur to recruit, you work with skilled professionals who have extensive experience in identifying needs, creating job profiles, conducting interviews and managing the selection process.
You know your business and the needs you want to meet. Together, we don't just choose a new employee you like. We ensure that the right employee - professionally, personally and socially - is hired.
Temp questions
Carpenters - Can you deliver?
A carpenter from Romania or Poland, for example, is a good choice if you need one or more carpenters. Contact us and let us help you find the right carpenter for your job.
Electricians - can you deliver?
We have a proven track record of selecting skilled and experienced electricians from our international temporary workers. Our process ensures that we only supply you with the right skills, so you can get on with your project from day one.
CNC Operators - Can you deliver that too?
We can, and we have a proven track record of doing so. The CNC operators and industrial technicians we select are experienced employees with the right qualifications and experience. We relate to your products, your machines and your production flow, so you get people who can get the job done right away.
Painters and fillers - Can you supply them?
Painters and fillers are in high demand, and we often supply temporary workers within the painting industry. We always make sure to find experienced and flexible workers, so you have temporary workers who can do the jobs you need.
Blacksmiths and welders - Can you supply them too?
We employ many blacksmiths and welders and can supply temporary workers with the right qualifications and experience. We recruit blacksmith and welder temps from both Denmark and abroad, ensuring each time that they have the right qualifications to solve the tasks you need.
Workers - Is this something you can provide?
You bet we do. We know that sometimes you just need extra manpower that can get the job done without the need for special qualifications. We supply laborers for jobs all over the country and of course make sure they match your needs for the job at hand.
How much does it cost to hire temporary workers in an emergency?
In short: It can be very expensive. Sometimes it costs a customer if your job is completed late. In our experience, it pays to hire temporary workers well in advance. We encourage you to contact us as soon as you think you might have a need. That way, we can ensure you have the necessary manpower in time.
Can I communicate with a temp from Eastern Europe?
Our temps come from Poland, Lithuania, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and the Czech Republic, but they generally speak English, so language is not a barrier. Neither between you and the temp, nor between the temp and other employees. In addition, we always make sure that our temps have experience with tasks similar to the ones they'll be doing for you.
What is the recruitment process for temporary workers?
First, we work with you to create a description of your company, the task you need solved and the requirements you have for the workforce you need. Then we create a competency profile, which is sent to our recruitment consultants, who then take care of advertising, conducting interviews and preparing profile descriptions. The most suitable candidates are then selected and hired as temporary workers on Danish terms. Some clients want to review profile descriptions first, while others leave the selection to us.
Can a temp work 50 hours a week without overtime pay?
The temporary worker may work 50 or more hours per week, as long as the average weekly working hours do not exceed 48 hours over a 4-month period.
If you don't have a collective agreement and your own employees don't receive overtime pay, the temp shouldn't either.
Can a temp work 16 hours at a time?
Yes, the temp is allowed to do so. As long as there are 11 hours between the end of the shift and the time the temp is allowed to return to work.
What do I do if the temp doesn't live up to my expectations?
If the temp doesn't live up to the contract, we will of course offer to replace them - at no additional cost to you. You decide whether the temp should be sent home from work immediately or whether the temp should continue working until we find a replacement.
If I send the temp home on the first day, do I have to pay?
If you need to terminate a temporary worker, simply contact us. We'll take care of the temp and take care of termination, payment and other practical matters. You must always be paid for the hours the temp has worked. And always for at least 4 hours of work.
Do I need to make sure the temp has a place to live, a Danish CPR number and all the other practicalities?
No, we take care of all the practicalities of the temporary worker - from travel assistance, accommodation, ordering tax cards, payroll and so on. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions about practicalities - or any other help while using our temps.
Recruitment questions
What are the benefits of using a professional recruitment company like Procur?
First and foremost, it provides access to skills and experience that can be used to create a more nuanced picture of job requirements, suitable candidates and the final match. And it means you can get a second set of eyes on your business and the importance of choosing the right people.
We know the pitfalls and can steer around them so you don't waste time and money or create unnecessary turmoil in your business.
Are you also responsible for job postings?
Yes, we do. And it's important. It needs to be as sharp and targeted as possible to ensure that the right candidates apply for the position.
What is the recruitment process based on?
The recruitment process is based on your business and what you need in your next employee. That's why we invest a lot of time in getting to the heart of what you're looking for. Not only in the present, but also for the development of your business.
What if the person I hire turns out not to be the right person?
While we do everything we can to get it right the first time, there may be a few situations where expectations are not met, the chemistry isn't right or something beyond our control gets in the way. Should this happen and the employment relationship has to be terminated, we will of course conduct a new round of hiring at no additional cost to you.
I need recruitment in Odense. Can you help with this?
We can. We can basically help in any part of the country, so no matter where your company is located or where you need to hire an extra employee, we can help you. And we're happy to do it.
How do you ensure we get the right employee?
When we carry out recruitment assignments, there are several conditions that need to be met. It's not always the most talented candidate who will be the best employee. We assess professional, personal and social skills.
Can Procur conduct candidate personality assessments?
At Procur, we are approved to create DISC profiles. We use the results of the analysis to get to the bottom of the company, job and candidate before the final decision is made. For us, it's important to have the best possible basis to ensure the right match.
