Is a labor dispatch a temporary worker?

Labor dispatch is not necessarily a temporary worker. Labor dispatch is just a way of employing workers, not necessarily all temporary workers, some employees are also with the dispatch company to sign a long-term or open-ended labor contract.

Compared with the traditional way of employment, labor dispatch can meet the needs of employers to flexibly employ workers, and has been widely used, but the special tripartite relationship structure of labor dispatch is also easy to be used by some employers to avoid the legal obligations, and damage the rights and interests of workers.

Some non-core employees (such as clerks, accountants, software or project engineers, marketers, simple operators of production lines, packers, security guards, car drivers, cooks, porters, cleaners, nurses in hospitals, and caretakers); or some non-professional work (such as property management, cleaning and sanitation, and portering, etc.) of the employing units are outsourced to the labor companies.

The two sides signed a labor dispatch agreement or a professional labor contracting agreement, in which the labor company undertakes a full set of human resource management services for the dispatched employees (including recruitment and hiring, labor contract management, performance management, safety management, wage management, insurance and welfare management, family planning management, etc.), and bears all the responsibility for the personnel risks (including the legal and economic liabilities).
