Office Services (Temporary Staffing Service) Moves to Human Resources
Effective February 21, 2011, the temporary staffing service formerly provided by Office Services moved from University Services to Human Resources. MSU departments can now call on Human Resources when they need to quickly locate and hire a temporary staff person to meet an immediate need. Human Resources can now offer MSU departments the full-service option of recruiting, interviewing and hiring temporary employees as well as tracking hours worked and handling all of the processes involved for paying temporary employees and billing costs back to the appropriate departments or units.
Moving Office Services functions to Human Resources will make it easier for MSU departments to come to one place for all employment and compensation needs since Human Resources already provides many other types of employment and compensation-related services for MSU departments.
This transition should be seamless for units that are used to using Office Services for hiring temporary workers. The only significant change at this time is that units will contact a different office to access the same range of services they are used to receiving from Office Services. The new contact for using the temporary staffing service is Anna Barner at Human Resources. You can reach Anna at barnera@hr.msu.edu or by calling 517-884-0198.
