At Normann Staffing, success does not mean just placing someone in a position. Success is achieved when that associate is working effectively for you. We call this Results Oriented Staffing. To ensure that the results you require are achieved, we develop a plan that best suits your schedule. Following is one format that has worked well:
Check–In:
On the first day, shortly after the assignment is scheduled to start, our Staffing Specialist contacts your designated manager or supervisor and confirms that your Normann Staffing employee has arrived on time.
Quality Control:
Toward the end of the first day of the assignment or beginning of the second day, our Staffing Specialist will contact your manager or supervisor to verify that skills and performance have met with your expectations.
Progress:
During the first week, our Staffing Specialist will contact your manager or supervisor to assess your continued satisfaction with the performance, productivity, attendance, and quality of work by the Normann Staffing associate or associates.
Temporary Associate Performance Review Evaluations:
The performance evaluation is designed to ensure that our clients maintain only top-quality employees and that these temporary associates are justly compensated for their performance level. In addition to our progress checks during the assignment, upon completion of your temporary job, you will receive an evaluation from us. This will give you an opportunity to let us know your level of satisfaction with our employee in a number of areas including attendance, performance, attitude, quality of work, and more. Your feedback is valued tremendously and allows us to develop a greater understanding of your company’s staffing needs as well as helping us improve the quality of service we provide you.
Exit Interviews:
At the conclusion of every assignment, exit interviews are conducted with each temporary associate. The exit interview findings provide valuable information for understanding and improving screening, selection and retention of quality temporary associates.
Overtime is any time worked within a single payroll week that exceeds 40 hours. We pay the associate and invoice clients for overtime at time and a half. Our payroll week is Monday to Sunday.
In compliance with NYS labor laws, all Normann employees will be entitled to one 30 minute meal break for every shift exceeding 6 hours.
Clients agree to notify Normann Staffing immediately of any incidents or injuries occur on the worksite involving a Normann employee. To continue receiving the superior customer service and quality staffing that Normann Staffing clients have come to rely on, please notify us as soon as possible of any problems or concerns that may arise.
Each week, you will receive an invoice for the hours worked by your Normann Staffing temporary associate during the previous week. Because our invoices are labor invoices, we ask that payment be remitted upon receipt of our invoice. Payments received later than 30 days are subject to a late fee.
The payment terms are a function of Normann Staffing’s weekly payroll policy. We offer associates the benefit of same-week pay. At the end of each Monday-Sunday payroll week, the employee will submit a completed Normann Staffing timesheet for your review and approval. The employee then sends the approved timesheet to Normann Staffing, and from this approved timesheet we generate our payroll and billing.

Temporary Fees
Temporary associates are billed at an hourly rate.

This approach enables Normann staffing to offer you the best possible rates without sacrificing the quality of our employees.

Most organizations can use extra help to handle a surge in business or a seasonal bump, but find it challenging to ramp up and hire in these situations. In other cases, good staff will need to step away for a period, and a temporary replacement is needed. In these and other cases, a staffing agency can provide the needed employees. Here are some of the benefits that you can expect if you turn to an agency in such situations:
Improved Productivity Yes, your regular employees could possibly help handle your work overload. Temporary employees can alleviate the risks of burnout on the part of your permanent people, helping avoid costly mistakes, the effects of lower morale, and reduced productivity which can occur with overburdened workers. Bring on temporary staff and your permanent employees can continue to focus on their priorities and maintain their productivity.
Try Before You Buy With an agency temp, you can try out a potential permanent staffer before bringing them on as permanent staff.
Decreased Costs All temporary staff costs are the responsibility of the agency, which can reduce your overall HR administrative and payroll overhead costs. Even more, you avoid the direct overtime costs for permanent people who would have had to step in to handle the increased demand. You also avoid the indirect costs of mistakes by overwhelmed permanent staff.
Avoid Unemployment Claims
Because your temps are employees of the agency, you do not have to be concerned with the effects of part-time, temporary workers filing for unemployment when their services are no longer needed. You not only avoid the direct costs but also the indirect costs that will occur if your administrative staff are spending time dealing with state labor department people. Increased Flexibility
Agency-sourced temporary staff provides your business with an ability and the agility to flex its human resources based on changing needs. Whether it's filling in for a staffer on maternity leave, providing that extra few hours a week you need, or bringing in a full time person for a time, you can meet the situation easily by drawing on your staffing agency.
Normann Staffing is equipped to support you. In addition, Normann Staffing is committed to serve as your strategic partner, helping you and your teams manage the flux in personnel requirements.
