I Need More Answers!
Spherion franchisees are independent business people and are not employed by Spherion Staffing, LLC (“Spherion”) or any of its affiliates. Thus, each franchisee and each franchise location is unique and the franchisee alone is responsible for all employment matters in their location(s), including the terms and conditions of employment for their employees, such as pay rate, hiring, firing, discipline, supervision, staffing and scheduling. Thus, the job for which you apply will be in a location owned and operated by an independent franchisee, and not Spherion. This means the franchisee, not Spherion, is responsible for all employment matters in their location. If you are hired for the job, the franchisee will be your employer, not Spherion. To the extent you need assistance in completing forms or otherwise participating in a franchisee’s application process, please contact the franchise organization directly.
