OF PRIVATE SECTOR TEMPORARIES

Conditions for use:

An agency may use private sector temporary help when one of the following short-term situations exists:

1) An employee is absent for a temporary period because of a personal need including emergency, accident, illness, parental or family responsibilities or mandatory jury service.

2) An agency must carry out work for a temporary period that cannot be delayed in the judgment of the agency because of a critical need.

These services shall not be used:

1) In lieu of the regular recruitment and hiring procedures under the civil service laws for permanent appointment in the competitive civil service.

2) To displace a Federal employee.

3) To circumvent controls on employment levels.

4) In lieu of appointing a surplus or displaced Federal employee as required by 5 CFR part 330, subpart F (Agency Career Transition Assistance Plan for Displaced Employees)

TIME LIMITATIONS:

An agency may use a temporary help service firm(s) in a single situation, as defined in 5 CFR part 300.504, initially for no more than 120 workdays. Provided the situation continues to exist beyond the initial 120 workdays, the agency may extend its use of temporary help services up to the maximum limit of 240 workdays. An individual employee of any temporary help firm may work up to a maximum of 240 workdays only when the agency has determined that using the services of the same individual for the same situation will prevent significant delay.

Facility Closure: Federal agencies should not pay temporary employees for services not rendered. Example of this would be if the Federal Facility which the temporary employee is scheduled is closed, i.e. bad weather, executive leave granted, etc.

See 5 CFR part 300, and the May 2, 1996 Federal Register for complete compliance requirements. Web site for Code of Federal Regulations:
