Staff Leasing

Definition

What is staff leasing?

Staff leasing is where companies partner with a 3rd-party that will handle the administrative aspects of employment, such that the 3rd-party is the legal entity that employs the staff. This is similar to seat leasing where a company that already has the infrastructure in place, will lease the use of that infrastructure to other companies. In the case of staff leasing, that infrastructure is the HR, payroll, and other employment-related processes; in the case of seat leasing, the infrastructure is the IT and telecommunications equipment only.

Depending on the need of the client, staff leasing companies can either provide the employees using their pre-existing pool of candidates, or the client company can handle the recruitment efforts while the staff leasing company handles the compensation and other sundries. Thanks to the scale of staff leasing outsourcing companies, they are in a position to offer more competitive benefits, such as lower-cost healthcare plans, to which smaller companies would not have access to. In turn, clients not only save on administrative costs, but the cost of an employee turns into a single line-item for easier accounting.
