Questions, answered
What is co-employment?

Co-employment means the staffing agency and the client share employer responsibilities for a temp worker. Scout Finders handles hiring, payroll, taxes, workers' comp and I-9/E-Verify; you direct the day-to-day work. Both parties have obligations under federal anti-discrimination law, which is why working with a compliant agency matters.

Can temporary workers become permanent?

Yes — temp-to-hire is one of the most popular options. You bring a worker on as a temp through Scout Finders, evaluate them on the job, and convert them to your permanent payroll whenever you're confident. It's a low-risk way to try before you hire.

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

The difference is who employs the worker. For temp/contract, that's us — we carry pay, taxes and workers' comp, and you flex headcount as needed. For direct-hire, that's you — we just deliver a vetted candidate for a one-time placement fee on hire.

Do you offer a replacement guarantee?

We stand behind every placement. Temp replacements are typically same-day and free; direct-hire roles carry a guarantee window during which we'll re-recruit if the hire doesn't stick.

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).
