Where it fits
When Companies Use Temporary Staffing
Temporary staff cover work with a clear end: an absence, a peak or a short project. These are the four requests we handle most.
Weeks to months
Leave and absence cover
Someone on maternity, sick or long leave? A temporary worker keeps the role running until they return.
A season
Seasonal peaks
Add people for Eid, year-end or export shipping peaks, then scale back when volumes drop.
Days
Launches and events
Staff a product launch, trade fair, audit or office move with people who start on the agreed day.

How it starts
From Request to First Shift
Four steps, each confirmed with you in writing before the next one begins.
Send the brief
Tell us the role, skills, shift, location, start date and how long you need cover.
Get a shortlist
We source, interview and test candidates, then send a shortlist with notes on each.
Pick your people
Interview if you wish and confirm who starts. The choice stays with you.
Start the assignment
Each worker signs a temporary contract with us and starts on the agreed day.
Timing depends on the role and headcount, so you get a written start date once the brief is agreed.
Every pay cycle
Wages, Overtime and Records, Handled
While the assignment runs, we record attendance, pay each worker and keep the statutory records. You approve the hours and pay one invoice, with every line traced to a named worker.
Overtime is paid at the rate Bangladesh law sets, and it appears as its own line, so there are no surprises.
| Days worked | From approved attendance |
|---|---|
| Overtime | Twice the ordinary rate |
| Wages and payslips | Paid and issued by us |
| Tax deducted at source | Where it applies |
| Statutory records | Kept by us |

Support While Your Temporary Staff Work

Regular check-insWe visit or call the worksite to make sure the worker and your team are settled.
Issues handled by usAttendance, conduct or a worker who has to leave early: we resolve it with you.
Assignment end
When the Assignment Ends, You Choose What Happens
Every temporary contract states its end date, so you decide the next step before it arrives.
End on the agreed date
The work is done. We pay final wages and dues, then close the contract.
Extend the assignment
Need more time? We issue an extension on the same or updated terms. If the work turns into a defined project, contractual staffing may suit it better.
Hire them for good
Keep a worker who fits the role. They can join your payroll through permanent staffing, on conversion terms agreed at the start.

Temporary Staffing Rules in Bangladesh
General information for foreign companies using temporary staff in Bangladesh. It is not legal advice. Rules change, so PayrollBangladesh confirms the current position for your case in writing.
Section 4 of the Bangladesh Labour Act 2006 sorts workers into classes. A temporary worker is hired for work that is essentially temporary and likely to finish within a limited period. A badli worker fills the post of a permanent worker or probationer who is temporarily absent. The ILO reads these definitions to mean such workers should not be used for work of a permanent nature.
Under section 26, when a temporary worker’s employment ends for a reason other than the temporary work finishing, the employer must give written notice of 30 days for a monthly-rated worker and 14 days for other workers.
An adult worker ordinarily works up to 8 hours a day and 48 hours a week (sections 100 and 102). With overtime, a day can run to 10 hours and a week to 60, averaging no more than 56 hours a week across a year. Section 108 sets overtime pay at twice the ordinary rate of basic wage and dearness allowance.
Section 3A of the Act bars any contracting agency from supplying workers to other organisations unless it is registered with the government. Before you sign with a staffing provider, ask to see proof of that registration.
