When to Use On-Site Management

Managing a large temporary workforce is a full-time job. If your internal supervisors are spending more time checking attendance than managing production, it’s time to outsource the administration. This solution is designed for:

  • High Volume Users: You consistently use 30+ temporary staff per shift. At this volume, the administrative burden of daily check-ins and orientation becomes unmanageable for your internal HR.
  • Complex Shift Structures: You operate 24/7 or have multiple shift rotations (Days, Afternoons, Nights) that require constant coordination and communication.
  • High Turnover Environments: You are in a sector with naturally high turnover and need a dedicated partner to constantly recruit, orient, and replenish the labour pool to maintain 100% fulfillment.
  • Productivity Gaps: You notice that temporary staff aren’t performing as well as core staff because they lack consistent coaching and supervision.

How We Embed Our Team

We don’t just send workers; we install a staffing infrastructure within your building.

Discovery & Implementation

We map your facility. We define the KPIs, safety protocols, and shift requirements to build a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) manual unique to your site.

On-Site Installation

We set up a physical presence. Whether it’s a dedicated office or a desk on the floor, our On-Site Manager becomes the central hub for all staffing activity.

Daily Management

We handle the daily grind. This includes shift check-ins, safety orientations for new starts, coaching conversations, and immediate replacements for no-shows.

Reporting & Optimization

We provide data transparency. You receive regular reports on fill rates, turnover, and hours worked, allowing us to continuously refine the roster for efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Typically, this model becomes cost-effective for clients utilizing 30 to 40+ temporary workers consistently. For smaller volumes, our standard Temporary Staffing service with a dedicated Account Manager is usually sufficient.

It depends on the volume. In many high-volume partnerships, the cost of the On-Site Manager is absorbed by GHRC as part of the overall service agreement. For lower-volume sites, a monthly management fee may apply.

They handle all “non-production” management. This includes recruiting, interviewing, checking staff in/out, conducting safety orientations, handling payroll inquiries, and managing disciplinary issues.

Because this involves hiring a dedicated manager and building site-specific SOPs, we typically require a 2 to 4-week lead time to launch a fully functional On-Site program effectively.

Generally, yes. To ensure accountability and safety, On-Site Management works best when GHRC is the primary vendor. This avoids confusion regarding who is responsible for which workers.
