Finding staff

How do people go about finding decent people to work for them?

I could do with either employing someone for a couple days a week or preferably finding a decent subcontractor help me out as and when.

It would Mostly be for landscape maintenance work as that side of my business is doing well at the moment.

 

Cheers, james

Would be a millionaire if I could answer that question! Its got to just be the single hardest thing in this industry and theres no easy answer.

 

I know what you mean, I just can't decide whether it's worth the extra hassle or not to take another person on.

Decent subbies seem hard to come by as well.

If you find the right person its a question of whether they can be flexible to fit in with your busy days and 'not used' on the other days.

If you find a really good helper it may be worth paying them the full week to keep them sweet.

When demand > supply then price goes up.
