Benefits of an agency
“If they were any good, they wouldn’t be working for an agency”
–This old clichéd phrase is something I have heard quite a few times in my long career working within the construction industry.
The answers are simple:
- the worker is paid weekly and on time without fail 
- they are ‘between jobs’, they are students wanting site experience 
- they have moved to the location recently 
- they have recently lost their job, they have been recently made redundant 
- they are visiting from abroad and want casual temporary work, they emigrated and are finding their feet 
- they are retired from and want flexible work 
- they have worked for themselves previously and were not paid due to no fault of their own 
- they receive a pension and holiday pay 
- they enjoy a flexible work life 
- they work for a good agency. - Take your pick!
