Staff leasing is a topic that provokes all kinds of opinions. While some see staff leasing as a fast and flexible way of working, for others the word can mean short-term jobs and faceless workers and employers.
Hansavest is a company offering comprehensive staffing services that wants to play its part in redefining the concept of staff leasing. Over its 15 years in business, the company has seen the needs of employers and workers alike and has developed its services to meet the needs of both in the best possible way. Although the company's main task is naturally to find the best people for open positions, it offers its workers much more besides.
Competitiveness through staff leasing
At Hansavest, we have listened to client companies' need for skilled labour. In Finland, companies often run into the problem that there simply are not enough skilled people for open positions, which means the company's growth and development opportunities come to a halt before they have even properly begun. Flexibility is also key when it comes to a company's competitiveness. Staff leasing makes it possible to keep workers in the company as needed – to increase their number easily and quickly as capacity grows, and to reduce it as needed during quieter periods.
Finnish companies have indeed noticed the strong professional skills of workers from abroad, for example from Latvia, Bulgaria or Ukraine. The adaptability and flexibility of workers from these countries are also particularly valued. Foreign labour is therefore not just a passing trend in the Finnish labour market but an ongoing need, which is why Hansavest wants to make the process as smooth as possible for both parties.
The solution lies in ease and reliability
When a Finnish company wants to hire a foreign worker, besides professional skills it values above all the worker's reliability and flexibility. When people work together but come from different cultures, it is important that both parties can trust each other. Hansavest acts as the interpreter and the glue between them.
Through its own recruitment and training process, Hansavest ensures that the client company really gets what it needs, and the worker, in turn, can rely on having Hansavest behind them, supporting and looking after its workers.
Workers go through the recruitment process in their home country and the required training in Estonia before they are ready to start work in Finland. Each worker also has their own Hansavest team leader, who helps resolve any questions the worker or the client company may have about the recruitment.
So the Finnish employer does not need to spend time searching for suitable foreign workers, handling paperwork and bureaucracy, or training. Likewise, the worker does not have to apply for jobs abroad on their own, sort out the required paperwork and pay practices, or worry about finding accommodation, as Hansavest takes care of all this on the worker's behalf.
