How does payroll work?
Career Edge hires receive their pay through direct deposit every two weeks. Sometimes, Career Edge employers offer a higher salary, which goes into the employee’s payroll.
We administer all payroll services, as all our short-term hires remain on the Career Edge payroll, allowing Career Edge employers to bypass typical payroll duties and receive a monthly invoice only.
What if the new hire is not performing well, how do we go about it?
If you have any issues with your hire, treat the situation like you would with a regular employee. Discuss concerns and document them for future reference.
● Communicate the feedback with the employee.
● Create an action plan with objectives and consequences if progress isn’t made.
● If termination is necessary, contact your Career Edge representative.
Remember, our hires can be let go “with just cause” without notice or “without just cause” with two weeks of pay in lieu of notice. During this process, consult your internal Human Resources professionals and your organization’s policies and procedures.
