What are temporary workers?
['Enforcement and Audits - OSHA']
Temporary workers (temp workers) are workers who are assigned to host employers through a staffing firm to perform work for the host employers on a temporary basis. They typically perform work for several employers throughout the year, and are often utilized so the host employer does not have to bring on a permanent worker for a seasonal or occasional need, or, in some cases, to perform labor-intensive jobs.
