Employers
Q: Does my company have to handle the WSIB for
the employee(s) we get from Professional Personnel?
A: No, all employees sent to our clients
are covered under Professional Personnel’s WSIB unless they
are hired on directly to their payroll.
Q: If I have employees from Professional
Personnel working for me am I able to hire them directly onto my
payroll?
A: Yes, Professional Personnel has
2 placement options that allow our client’s to hire the employee
directly. The “temp to perm” option allows the client
to hire the employee on directly after 3 months and the “direct
hire” option allows the client to directly hire the employee
on immediately after the qualification process.
Q: What kind of qualifications do your employees
need to work for Professional Personnel?
A: Our qualifications are based on
the job where the employee will be placed as most qualification
standards are set by our clients.
Q: What happens if I have a problem with
one of the employees that Professional Personnel sends to my company?
A: If you have a problem with one of
the employees we place with you, we ask that you simply contact
one of our client service’s emergency numbers and we will
remove that person and replace them with another qualified employee.
Q: What kind of lead-time does Professional
Personnel need in order to supply us with qualified relief staff?
A: Our staffing consultants are available
24 hours/ 7 days a week and therefore can respond to your request
immediately. If you require a temporary relief employee we will
strive to find you the most qualified individual with only a few
hours notice. If you are requiring a full time placement we ask
that you give us as much notice as possible.

will I get paid by them or the client I get placed with?

you are hired under a temp to perm placement option, you will be

you will be qualified by Professional Personnel but you will then
be paid directly by the client.

how do I get paid?
A: Professional Personnel runs a weekly
payroll with payday being on the Friday following the week you work.
Your pay will either be delivered to the client where you are working

the option of having their pay directly deposited into their account.
Q: How soon can you put me to work?
A: It generally takes a couple of days
to qualify an employee with Professional Personnel, however we will
do everything possible to ensure our employees are placed at a client
as soon as a placement becomes available in their field.
