Organisations opt for secondment because of its flexibility in responding to changing staffing needs. It enables quick access to specialised skills without long-term commitments. Additionally, secondment helps with cost control and obtaining expertise for specific projects.

Secondment ensures rapid deployment of personnel and risk management, often through staffing agencies. This reduces overhead costs and avoids time-consuming recruitment processes for temporary tasks.

The duration of temping varies based on contracts, project length, and local laws. Generally, it can last from weeks to years, depending on specific needs. Additionally, some countries have legal restrictions on this period.

Usually, the staffing agency pays the VAT. They send an invoice to the organisation where the secondee will work. Depending on local laws, the organisation can deduct the paid VAT as expenses. Keep in mind that this may vary in other countries.

Secondment and temping are ways for professionals to work temporarily for other organisations. The difference is that secondment involves specialists being lent to another organisation for longer-term projects. In contrast, temping involves professionals being lent to different clients for shorter assignments.

When one of our secondees is temporarily unavailable, we explore various solutions. The client's team can take over the absent colleague's tasks, or we can arrange for a replacement. We adjust the schedule and make new arrangements together.

It's essential to discuss the situation with us. The right approach depends on the duration of the professional's absence and the agreements in place. Our goal is to continue operations as smoothly as possible without unnecessary disruptions.
