Questions, answered
How does temp staffing work?

We take your brief, match a pre-screened candidate and put them to work on your timeline. Scout Finders runs payroll, taxes and workers' comp as the W-2 employer; you supervise the assignment and can hire the worker permanently whenever you're ready.

What is co-employment?

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.

How do you vet candidates?

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.

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

Texas 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 (elective in Texas, but Scout Finders carries it). 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).
