Get crew hire prices from partners that match your needs.

Do you need temporary staff to cover sickness and vacation for your permanent employees? Or do you need a crew for a large or small assignment that requires a highly qualified crew with special skills? The price will most likely be different, and different temporary staffing agencies will probably be the best match for each job.

The price of crew hire is complex, so in this blog post you won't find a price list of what crew hire costs. You can compare the prices of temporary staffing agencies to the price of a new car. You usually get what you pay for, and that's also the case in the temporary staffing industry.

There are things to consider in addition to the price your temp agency charges.

When it comes to crew hire pricing, there are a few things you need to consider. Don't just think about the price of the temporary worker or the crew you're hiring. You also need to make sure you're getting a crew that can possess the necessary skills, meet your expectations and do quality work for you.

Check if your potential partner is in control of the recruitment process, collective agreements, hiring, remuneration and the temporary workers' professional skills, training and certificates, which you normally handle for your own permanent employees.

The cheapest temps can become the most expensive.

Unfortunately, price and quality don't always go hand in hand, and very expensive staffing solutions can be, well, overpriced. Conversely, you should also be wary of what look like bargain prices and cheap solutions. These solutions can end up being the most expensive, simply because the quality is too poor or because the staffing agency hasn't done a good enough job.

Among other things, you need to make sure that the temp agency complies with the relevant legislation so that your "cheap" temps don't end up getting you on the front page of Ekstra magazine.

It can be difficult to assess price and quality when it comes to hiring staff. You want to save money on your staffing costs, but at the same time, you don't want to compromise on the quality of your temporary workers. Temporary staffing agencies are often chosen or rejected because of price, even though the cheapest option can easily end up being the most expensive when it comes down to it.

Temporary worker prices

Prices for unskilled labor.

Unskilled labor is the cheapest labor you can get and is ideal for work areas that don't necessarily require special skills, extensive experience or employees with specific training. Unskilled laborers and craftsmen can be part of your team alongside your skilled carpenters, bricklayers or painters, for example, and provide the extra hands you need to get your project to the finish line.

Skilled worker pricing.

Skilled labor is naturally more expensive than unskilled labor. Skilled labor is for tasks that are slightly more complex and require an employee with specific skills, experience, qualifications or education. Examples include skilled carpenters, electricians, painters, bricklayers or welders.

Crew hire prices can vary greatly.

However, the price of unskilled and skilled labor can vary greatly, and your prices will depend on factors such as industry, demand, timeframe and duration and the size of the job, the number of employees you need and the location in the country.

Find a temp agency you trust.

What do temporary workers cost

FAQ.

The price you pay to your temp agency includes, for example, the employee's salary, social security contributions, holiday pay and the temp agency's contribution.

If you want to know what a fair price is for the staff you need, we recommend that you get quotes and compare prices from several different temporary staffing agencies. This will give you a good overview of what the price is for the type of labor you need. However, you should also keep in mind that this way you're only measuring price and not the quality of the work your temp agency does.

If you have a specific job coming up where you need to hire extra workers, it's always a good idea to contact your temp agency as soon as possible. This way, you can make sure you get the staff you need when you need them. When you're early, it's also easier for your temp agency to offer you the best temps they have, sometimes at more competitive rates as they have more time for the job.
