DTS Support and Responsibilities
Temporary employee efficiencies can be obtained through effective recruiting, orientation, training and support. These processes foster shorter
learning curves and may help to reduce your department's overall costs.
Orientation
All temporary employees receive a customized employee handbook and basic
orientation that includes information on timecard procedures, dress code, basic
safety, and guidelines.
Employee Testing and Training Programs
DTS and its network of suppliers are able to provide you with qualified
temporary employees who have been evaluated on the use of the
Windows operating system for computers and the most commonly used software
applications. We are able to match our temporary employees' skills and
experience to your department's requirements.
Changing an Assignment
Any significant changes in job duties or description, particularly those that
may involve health and/or safety implications or job level, must be communicated
to your DTS or Kelly representative. Since all employees are selected according to their
demonstrated ability to perform the duties of a specific job description, any
new assignments must be discussed to ensure that the employee is capable and
suited for the new, or different, duties. Temporary employees are always
encouraged to be flexible, but your DTS or Kelly representative should be
contacted prior to
any significant changes in the responsibilities of temporary employees.
Ending an Assignment
When the services of a temporary employee are no longer required, for any
reason, it is the hiring manager's responsibility to notify the DTS or Kelly
representative, so that the
employee can be advised of the discontinuation of the assignment. Exceptions to
this practice should be reviewed and determined by DTS. DTS or Kelly, as the
legal employer, has the responsibility for informing employees of assignment
terminations.
Hiring Temporary to Regular Staff
Any employee of DTS, Kelly, or an approved secondary supplier can be hired as
a regular employee by Duke after a specified number of days or hours on assignment.
It is important that a diverse candidate pool be presented for consideration and
a regular job vacancy announcement be on file. Conversion rates for Kelly and
approved secondary suppliers are based on annualized salary and days of service. Please
contact your DTS or Kelly representative to discuss conversion rates associated with
hiring a temporary employee.
