Love that temp
Often a temporary will come into your office and there will be a nice match. You may want to have that Dental Hygienist, Dental Assistant or Receptionist back for other openings you know you have coming up. If the Temp is still in your office and is able to make the commitments for the day(s) you need, call RDH Temps, Inc. while you are both together. Give us the days and hours and we can verify everything with both of you at the time, avoiding more calls to confirm. We do need to speak to both parties to be assured that communication on all sides is accurate. If the Temp is not in your office at the time you know the dates you need, please call RDH Temps, Inc. to request the dates and time, along with the name(s) of who you would like. We ask you not to call the Temps at home. If the Temp works out well, and you are interested in making a permanent placement with that person, please call the office to firm up the terms and arrangements.

Keeping temporary employees on the job
Although there are important differences between temporary employees and regular employees, certain practices make good business sense with any employee. Every temporary employee, whether hired for the day, a week or indefinitely, should receive the following

• An orientation to the work environment. Let temporary employers know what’s expected of them and what they can expect from the job and the company. Take the time to answer questions they may have and introduce them to employees they may work with. 
• Give temporary employees the resources they need to be productive. This includes equipment as well as access to people they might deal with during their assignment. 
• Communicate, communicate, communicate. Check in regularly with long-term temporaries to make sure they understand the assignment and are not having any problems. 
• Praise temporary employees for good work. A pat on the back for a job well done goes a long way with any employee. 
• Treat temporary employees with respect and include them as part of the team as much as possible. Let them know that their performance affects the big picture. 

Keeping it straight
Reminder: once a temp has worked through RDH Temps, Inc. for a facility, the dental personnel can return to your facility only if the agency fee (temporary or permanent) that applies is paid to RDH Temps, Inc. This condition lasts for a period of one year after the last date worked for you (and applies to working at your facility directly or through another temporary agency).
