Questions, answered
What is the difference between temp staffing and direct-hire?

With temp and contract staffing, Scout Finders employs the worker (payroll, taxes, workers' comp) and assigns them to you — flexible and fast to scale. With direct-hire, we recruit and vet candidates but your business employs them permanently; there's no co-employment, and you pay a placement fee only when you hire.

Who is responsible for workers' compensation?

On temp and contract assignments Scout Finders is the employer of record and carries workers' compensation coverage for the assigned worker — so your business isn't exposed for that coverage. Workers' comp is state-mandated everywhere except Texas (where it's elective, though we carry it).

What does a staffing agency do?

Think of a staffing agency as your outsourced recruiting and HR-admin arm: we find qualified people, run the screening, and for temp staff we put them on our payroll as the employer of record so you skip the paperwork and the liability.

Do you need a license to run a staffing agency in Massachusetts?

For temp and contract staff in Massachusetts, Scout Finders is the W-2 employer of record, registered under Massachusetts's staffing/placement agency registration (registration number provided on engagement); we carry workers' compensation, run I-9/E-Verify, and act as a co-employer with your business under federal law. 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).
