Cost containment is a major challenge for many healthcare companies today. They're operating with relatively slim margins, and labor represents a majority of net operating expenses in many cases. And that's where staffing partners can help.

At Randstad Healthcare, we don't think of cost and quality as being mutually exclusive — in our experience, cost savings and quality improvements typically go hand in hand. For example, when staffing partners work proactively with your in-house HR team to enhance onboarding processes, that can help move the needle on key talent metrics like engagement and retention. And when you have qualified contingent workers available to handle peak demand, there's less of a burden on your existing full-time workforce, which leads to lower rates of turnover and burnout, to boot.

Partnering with a staffing company shouldn't be thought of as a tradeoff between cost and quality — and with Randstad Healthcare, you'll never have to choose.
