HEAD ~d^-^ CITYATTY. ^ CITY MGR. fa. RECOMMENDED ACTION: City Council adopt Resolution No. 2011-047 approving temporary employment agency contracts. ITEM EXPLANATION: Since 1990, the Human Resources Department centralized the function of procuring temporary employment services for the City by consolidating the use of approved agencies. This was done in order to monitor costs more effectively, and to ensure consistency of rates and services. Due to the expiration of these contracts, Human Resources reopened the bidding process and interviewed a number of employment agencies for consideration. As a result, four temporary employment agencies are being recommended to Council for contract services. 1. Manpower Temporary Services 2. Apple One Employment Services 3. Sedona Staffing Services 4. TEG Staffing It is necessary to have four agencies under contract with the City for a number of reasons. The fluctuation in unemployment rates can affect the supply and demand of temporary employees and the City may need to call several agencies before a position is filled. This number also allows flexibility in utilizing those agencies based on their specialization in various service areas at the most reasonable cost. Each contract will be in effect for one year, and may be extended for three (3) additional one (1) year periods by the City Manager based on a review of satisfactory performance and not to exceed the amount appropriated in the current budget for temporary services. Temporary services are utilized and paid for on an as needed basis for limited or interim assignments. Typically, the needs arise as a result of an urgent or critical vacancy or when specialized skills are necessary for a specific assignment.
