A staffing agency connects employers with workers across temp, contract, temp-to-hire and direct-hire. The key distinction is who employs the worker — for temporary placements that's the agency (it handles pay, taxes and workers' comp); for direct hires it's you.
Both our temp and direct-hire placements are backed by a guarantee: we replace a temp who isn't working out quickly, and we re-fill a direct-hire that leaves within the guarantee window.
For direct-hire and permanent placements, Scout Finders recruits and vets only — your business employs the candidate, so there is no co-employment and no license claim. We lead with ASA membership and structured candidate vetting (skills, references, work authorization). Ohio has no staffing-agency licensing scheme. As the W-2 employer of record for temp and contract staff, Scout Finders operates under federal labor law (co-employment, ACA, EEOC, I-9/E-Verify); we carry workers' compensation.
