For many temporary workers the temporary workers the perfect introduction to your dream job. Many employees find their way back into working life this way, and temporary workers can also be taken on as permanent employees by the hiring company. There are many advantages for the employee when being taken on from temporary work. The temporary worker has already got to know the company and can apply directly for a permanent position in the company. However, it should be noted that the works council often has to agree to a transfer from temporary to permanent employment.
Temporary or agency workers can do a lot to increase their chances of being taken on. Temporary workers should be punctual, loyal and motivated and, of course, enjoy their work. If the employee is a team player, the company will usually be happy to take them on.
This is how the transfer to a permanent position works
If a temporary worker feels comfortable in the company where they are working as a temporary worker and the company is also satisfied with them, they may be taken on as a temporary employee. In this case, the existing contract between the temporary worker and the personnel service provider is cancelled and a new contract is concluded between the employee and the company.
Normally, the personnel service provider receives a placement fee from the company that takes on the temporary worker. This is usually based on the annual income of the temporary worker. Sometimes the temporary worker is even taken on free of charge. This means that nothing stands in the way of the permanent employment of a temporary worker.
The transfer is essentially nothing more than a regular job change, but without the application process. The employee must submit a notice of termination to their personnel service provider in due time in order to be able to switch to a permanent position with the new employer. If the personnel service provider does not agree to premature cancellation of the contract, the temporary worker must continue to work for the temporary employment agency until the end of the notice period. Only then can they start at the new company, provided the new contract has been signed. Sometimes the temporary worker must have a probationary period of up to six months with their new employer, even though they have already worked for the company.

This is what companies have to consider when taking over
If a company wants to take on a temporary worker, there are a few things to bear in mind. Some personnel service providers require a placement fee to be paid for the employee taken on. This is usually based on the agreed salary. The commission is usually between one and three gross monthly salaries, but decreases with the duration of the assignment. A temporary worker may be on loan to the company for a maximum of 18 months (with some exceptions). If they work for the company for longer, the employer is even obliged to offer them a permanent position. When concluding contracts with personnel service providers, companies should ensure that no non-solicitation clause etc. has been agreed. This is legally invalid - as the hirer, the company always has the option of taking on a temporary worker.
Zeitarbeit International actively supports you in taking on your desired temporary worker.
