All about temporary employment

As a professional, you want the freedom to shape your career the way you envision it. Temporary employment gives you this flexibility.

Frequently asked questions about temporary employment

Do you have other questions about temporary employment? If so, please contact, your consultant. 

If you are employed on a temporary basis through YER, you enter into an employment contract with us. We place you with clients in our network, but you are employed by YER.

You are entitled to the same terms of employment as colleagues in comparable positions employed directly by the client. You may also benefit from terms of employment offered by YER, such as coaching, training and masterclasses. The specific terms and conditions will depend on the contract and the industry in which you work. Your YER consultant will be happy to go through all the possibilities with you in person.

Yes, this is a distinct possibility. After working through YER for the agreed period, it is often possible for you to transfer to the client. Or you stay with YER and start working on a new project. Our consultants will be happy to tell you more about the different contracts and scenarios.

This varies from one project to another. You can work for long periods as well as shorter ones. On average, projects last a year and a half, but this varies depending on the field and the industry. To find out more about the opportunities available to you, request an exploratory meeting with a consultant in your professional field.

Yes, in many cases this is possible. At the end of your temporary contract(s), you can transfer to the client or accept another temporary contract from YER. Our professionals are increasingly choosing temp-to-perm placements. This means that at the end of the agreed minimum temporary employment period, you will be employed by the client.

No. As a professional employed on a temporary basis through YER, your salary will equal or exceed the salary for comparable positions employed directly by the organization. The fee agreements between the client and YER do not affect your salary.
