Temporary Staffing · On-demand & seasonal

Cover the surge.
Skip the scramble.

On-demand professionals for peaks, seasonal spikes and leave cover. Vetted, compliant and deployed in 24–72 hours — scale your team up or down as the work changes, with zero long-term commitment.

Why Rivago

Capacity the day
you actually need it.

Most agencies scramble when you call. We do the opposite — a standing pool of pre-vetted workers, one partner who knows your operation, and payroll, scheduling and compliance already handled so people are productive on arrival.

Deployed in 24–72 hours

A standing, pre-vetted pool means we can put people on the floor the same week you call — sometimes the same day.

Payroll & compliance, on us

We're the employer of record for every temp — payroll, tax, insurance, right-to-work and scheduling all handled in-country.

Scale up or down instantly

Ramp for a peak, cover a shift, wind down after the season — flex headcount as demand moves, with no long-term commitment.

Reliable, vetted people

Right-to-work, references and skills checked before anyone is offered — plus a bench of proven repeat workers you can request by name.

How temporary staffing works

Three ways to add
on-demand temporary capacity.

01
Temporary cover
Fill a gap fast — sickness, parental leave, a sudden departure or a short project. A vetted professional in the seat within 24–72 hours, for as long as you need them.
  • Deployed in 24–72 hours
  • Day, week or month-long assignments
  • Payroll & compliance fully handled
  • End the assignment anytime
02
Seasonal & peak staffing
Ramp a whole crew for a busy season, a product launch or a demand spike — then wind it down cleanly. Volume hiring, pre-planned, with the same proven faces year on year.
  • Volume ramp, planned in advance
  • Request proven repeat workers by name
  • Scale down cleanly when it's over
  • One invoice, one point of contact
03
On-site managed team
For high-volume or shift-based operations, we place an on-site coordinator alongside the workers — managing scheduling, attendance, swaps and quality so you don't have to.
  • On-site supervision included
  • Shift scheduling & attendance managed
  • Same-day replacement swaps
  • Volume & multi-site coverage

Customer story

Temporary teams,
in their own words.

Plain English from ops leads, site managers and workforce planners who scaled with Rivago temps in the last eighteen months. No pseudonyms. No doctored quotes.

US · Retail

Black Friday nearly broke us the year before. Rivago ramped forty temps across three sites in seventy-two hours — same crew we'd rated the prior peak. Every shift covered, off payroll by January.

Ryan P.
Workforce Planner · US retail group
Canada · Healthcare

A norovirus outbreak took out a third of our floor staff overnight. Rivago had eight cleared support workers on-site the next morning — right-to-work and references already done. It saved the ward.

Operations Lead · Ontario care provider
UAE · Events

We run large events on impossible timelines. Rivago fields on-site managed crews — hospitality, logistics, front-of-house — with their own supervisor. Visas and payroll handled. We just run the show.

FAQ

Temporary staffing, the practical detail.

Two to three days for most requirements, and same-week for urgent cover. That is achievable because the bench is pre-screened, referenced and compliance-cleared before you call — there is no screening cycle to run once the requirement lands.
You get same-day replacement cover. Every placement has a named coordinator reachable on the day, and a cleared bench behind it so a substitute does not need a fresh screening cycle. No-shows are tracked against each worker and repeat offenders come off the bench.
Rivago carries employer liability and workers compensation insurance for every temporary worker, and certificates are available on request. Site-specific safety induction is your responsibility as the controller of the premises; we document that it was completed before the worker starts.
Yes — that is the core commercial reason to use temporary staffing. Workers are employed by Rivago, so reducing headcount is a change to the assignment, not a redundancy process. There is no notice liability and no termination cost to you.
At the statutory or agreed premium rate for the jurisdiction, shown separately on the invoice. Holiday accrual is included in the rate and itemised, so there is no year-end true-up and no surprise cost when a worker takes leave.
Wherever possible, yes, and we track it deliberately. Returning workers already know your site, your systems and your standards, which removes the induction cost. We keep a named roster per client for seasonal and recurring demand.
