# [4 Ways Contingent Workers Can Help Your Business](https://blog.malonesolutions.com/blog/4-ways-contingent-workers-can-help-your-business)

Right now, your staffing roster is set in stone. You might have a mix of full-time and part-time workers, but they’re all employed permanently. If your staffing needs ebb and flow throughout the year, this situation isn’t ideal.

Seasonal workers are the game-changer you didn’t know you needed. When things get busy, simply tell your recruiter you need a few extra hands, and they’ll be at your doorstep in no time all. Here’s what you have to gain by changing your business model to include seasonal staffers.

### **Handle a Higher Volume of Work with Ease**

During busy seasons, things get pretty hectic at your company. You need all hands-on deck, but even that isn’t enough to avoid long hours and missed opportunities.

Seasonal talent makes this a non-issue because they can step right in and fill the gaps. Stop sweating big orders — or turning business away — and take on as many people as necessary to keep things running smoothly.

### **Cut Payroll Costs**

When non-exempt employees work more than 40 hours per week, you’re required to pay them overtime. If this becomes a habit, payroll expenses will seriously cut into your profits.

Avoid this by hiring contingent staffers to handle the overflow. Instead of having to pay time and a half, you’ll only be on the hook for everyone’s standard wages.

### **Increase Morale**

All work and no play doesn’t make anyone happy. If your busy season consists of mandatory overtime and a blackout on vacation days, your staff probably isn’t too happy.

Give your team the work-life balance they deserve by bringing seasonal workers on board. They can fill in the gaps, so your team doesn’t achieve burnout.

### **Adjust Staffing Levels as Needed**

Adding seasonal employees into the mix allows you to be fully staffed at all times. Since business needs change throughout the year, this is the only way to avoid periods of being overstaffed or understaffed. Having the right number of employees on board at all times is great for business because you’re able to reach peak productivity, without spending a dime more on staffing than necessary.

If your light industrial company needs seasonal workers, Malone Workforce Solutions is here to assist. Whether you’re looking to fill logistics positions in Monroe, MI or manufacturing jobs in Lexington, KY, we have it covered. [Get in touch today](https://malonesolutions.com/contact/) to learn more!
