The Right People = Less Time, Less Costs and Greater Productivity
Choosing the right people to join your business can take considerable time, effort and is costly. With high levels of risk of breaching employment legislation, can you afford to get it wrong?
The average time to full employee productivity ranges from 8 to 28 weeks* depending on the type of role. This means businesses do not truly know if they have recruited the right person until sometime within the first 6 months of employment. This is also the time in which employees will make the decision to stay with a company.
