What is a temp worker?

Temp workers, or temporary workers, are individuals hired to work for a limited period of time, often through staffing agencies. They help companies fill short-term staffing needs due to seasonal demands, special projects, or employee absences. Temp workers can be placed in a wide range of industries and roles, and their assignments can last from a single day to several months. While they are not permanent employees, temp work can sometimes lead to full-time positions. Temp jobs offer flexibility for both employers and workers.
