source ↗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.
It's how staffing works legally — two employers, split duties. Scout Finders hires, pays, insures and verifies the worker; you manage their tasks on site. Using a careful, compliant agency keeps that shared liability low.
Vetting is layered: capability and skills testing first, then references and E-Verify work authorization, then any role-specific checks — background, drug screen, or primary-source license verification for regulated jobs.
Temp staffing is billed as an hourly rate that includes wages, employer taxes and workers' comp, so there are no surprise costs. Direct-hire is a contingency placement fee owed only on a successful hire.
Virginia 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. 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).
