The provision of temporary workers to handle a particular facility, department or function for an organization. Although first-line supervision of these workers is sometimes managed through the temporary employer, ultimate supervision and management responsibility for the product or service of the department, or the outsourced function, is retained by the customer. Typically, these are considered to be “temporary help” arrangements, even though they may be for an indefinite period. Facilities staffing is often sold as a way to maintain high productivity in high-turnover, high-burnout positions such as telephone work, data-entry operations, or repetitive assembly work.
