1. You're a senior manager at a growing business and you're ready to add employees. Your HR manager has recommended a temp-to-perm policy. You know the advantages of this approach, but what might be some of the disadvantages?
Temp to hire can be a disadvantage because you can be in a contract with the temp company and have to get out of it. Also it can take a week to over a year to get hired on full time.
2. Assume that you're a prospective job seeker (which you may very well be). What do you personally see as the advantages and disadvantages of taking a temp-to-perm position? Under what circumstances are you most likely to take a temp-to-perm position?
The advantages are that you can decide rather to take the job or stay before you get hire. Disadvantage is that it can take a long time to get hire full time. I would like to take a temp to hire because if it doesn't work out then you can move on the to next job.
3. What sort of challenges are likely to confront a manager who supervises a mix of temporary and permanent employees? In what ways might these challenges differ if the temporary workers have been hired on a temp-to-perm basis rather than on a strictly temporary basis?
The challenges are that temp people are easier to get rid of and the permanent employees are more likely to stay around because they get go paid and benefits.
