Temporary Employment Agency

Outagamie County, Wisconsin issued a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) to secure a temporary‑employment‑agency that will act as the common‑law employer for contracted workers. The agency must handle payroll, taxes, benefits, and related employer responsibilities, charging the County a percentage markup on the hourly wage the County negotiates with each worker. The contract term is three years beginning August 1 2025, with two optional two‑year extensions. The award was made to Manpower. Key points include: • Scope covers full payroll administration, tax compliance, workers’‑comp, and health‑insurance (or penalty) for temporary staff. • Agency must maintain a physical office within 10 miles of the County Complex and be able to onboard a worker within three business days. • Compensation is a markup‑percentage model; no direct hiring fee is payable if the County hires a recruited worker. • The County requires three to five references and completion of insurance/indemnification documentation (Attachment A).
