Should companies change their perspective on interim management?
The crises continue. Before the one we are experiencing now, there was the Covid crisis and preceding the latter, the subprime, etc. Our observation is that the phases of uncertainty are accelerating. In order to cope with it, companies must be able to anticipate and have a great capacity to adapt. This means accelerating when the time comes to do so or, conversely, braking when necessary. To do this, organizations must move from a way in which temporary human resource needs are managed “as best we can”, to a rational and optimized management of these needs. For companies, it is, today, a strategic issue.
How can the use of digital tools help you in terms of recruiting in this period of talent wars?
Using digital tools allows you to target a much broader panel of potential service providers. In addition, companies can thus invest in their internal pool. In fact, the easiest way to find a CDD or temporary worker is to turn to professionals who have already worked within the company and given you satisfaction. In this way, the organization will be able to save on recruitment and supply times. You will also reduce the risk associated with recruiting an unknown person who will also need training. The solution we offer at Directskills covers these needs.
Another point that poses a problem is that of regulatory compliance, which is often poorly controlled. How to respond effectively to this challenge?
Several digital platforms have been condemned, both civilly and criminally, for failing to comply with labor regulations. Therefore, it is an essential topic. Traditionally, temporary employment agencies are in charge of drafting the contracts. But none of them can master all the legal complexities associated with temporary work. This is why contracts are often wrong. This puts the company at legal risk. To address these regulatory challenges, Directskills offers a solution that gives clients control over these processes. They will configure the job descriptions and all the elements that must accompany the contract. Therefore, they can produce it themselves and have their service providers sign it. Therefore, we guarantee legal serenity that is otherwise impossible to achieve.
Is the observation not the same in terms of billing?
As with the legal side, no temp agency can master all the subtle rules that apply to payroll. Hence, once again, the multiplication of errors in the invoices traditionally issued by temporary work companies, which is why our solution allows companies to generate their own intermediate invoices automatically, with the guarantee of the correct use of their punches and payment rules. The consequence is immediate: this guarantees fully reliable invoices and thus avoids possible disputes.
These challenges in terms of temporary work are not limited to France…
By the way. That is why we have international ambitions and we have already signed for five countries: Spain, Portugal, Italy, Belgium and the Netherlands. Finally, we target all of Europe.
