How do you evaluate the practice of working through outstaffing and how does it differ from other ways of attracting specialists?

Outstaffing is a practice of engaging specialists through an external company, which formally acts as their employer, but the specialists work directly on the client's project.

Differences and features of outstaffing:

• Legal aspect: employees are listed on the staff of the outstaffing company, not the client.
• Control: the client manages the tasks and work process of the specialists.
• Flexibility: it is possible to quickly increase or decrease the team without formalizing full-time employees.
• Risks: responsibility for personnel issues lies with the outstaffing company.

Unlike outsourcing, where the contractor performs the work independently and is responsible for the result, in outstaffing, specialists are integrated into the client's team. Compared to hiring full-time employees, outstaffing reduces administrative and tax burdens but may be less stable in terms of long-term relationships.
