Yes, and it's common. Start someone as a Scout Finders temp, see how they perform on real work, then move them onto your payroll when you're ready — a try-before-you-buy path to a permanent hire.
As the W-2 employer for temp staff, Scout Finders provides and pays for workers' compensation and handles claims. That's one of the core reasons businesses use a staffing agency instead of hiring temps directly.
