In the fast-paced staffing industry, organizations face a unique set of risks on both the client and employee sides of the business. On the one hand, you’re responsible for ensuring the employees you place are qualified for the potential risks they can face in the work environments where they are placed. But you also need to partner with clients who provide safe working conditions and fair wages.
Insurance can help protect your business from lawsuits and associated costs, but only to an extent. This is why you need a strong risk management strategy in place. With the right mix of strategy and technology, you can actively mitigate risk and avoid much larger legal and financial repercussions.
As a staffing firm, your organization is liable for an employee’s mistakes on the job and the misrepresentation of their credentials. You’re also responsible for ensuring the clients you work with won’t pose a threat to your employees, not to mention ensuring your own business operations are compliant and fair.
In the staffing industry, there are four particularly notable categories of risk — fraud, credit, financial, and, liability risks:
Each type of risk opens up the door to legal, reputational, and financial repercussions that can impact your bottom line. And with the countless number of moving parts in a staffing agency, it’s important to proactively identify, understand, and mitigate these threats to keep your business operations running smoothly.
To stay ahead of the myriad risks in the staffing industry, it’s critical to conduct employee and client risk assessments. With a thorough screening process in place, including background checks and past employment verification, you can minimize risks before it’s too late.
While screening employees and clients may incur a higher cost upfront, it reduces the likelihood of risk occurring. The legal and reputational damage that can stem from staffing agency risks rack up a much higher bill than any screening costs will.
As the scope of staffing risk management continues to increase, outdated tools and spreadsheets are no longer adequate to help effectively manage risk, especially with so many employees in the field. This is why many companies turn to a risk management platform to take their mitigation strategies to the next level.
As risk management needs in the staffing industry continue to grow more complex, consider integrating a risk management platform into your existing strategy. With a risk management platform, you can access digitized safety reporting, claims management, and incident intake — all in a centralized repository.
The integration of Aclaimant and Bullhorn offers a comprehensive solution to the evolving challenges of risk management in staffing, equipping agencies with a forward-looking strategy, and they stay ahead of the risks inherent to their business.
