Calculate Your Onboarding Cost Of New IT Staff - Is The Solution Temporary IT Staff?




Have you been struggling with hiring new IT staff? A study done by Resources For Employers suggests you're not alone. In fact, they determined it takes around 30 days to hire a new tech worker, while the retention rate to keep a tech employee is only around 18 months. This on-boarding process can cost your company THOUSANDS of dollars per year in downtime, and training. If you're interested in calculating you're own company's turnover rate and onboarding costs, Colin Matthes has created an online calculator in Google Sheets that you can access here: (Click Here For Google Sheet).

In this Google Sheet, you can calculate the cost of your company's turnover rate, hiring fees, training fees, downtime loss, etc..


So what's the solution to avoid company downtime, and all the extra costs your company might acquire during the onboarding phase of IT workers? Our solution is deploying temporary IT staff into your organization to provide additional IT support capacity until your company finds someone permanent to fill the role. Our temporary workers are available both part-time and full-time and are readily available to work for your organization within 48 hours of deployment. Our tech staff would work on a month-to-month basis with your company until your team finds the right person for the role, so your commitment level is very low!
