Do you go through periods in your business when activity spikes and your team can’t keep up? Or times when you hesitate to hire new people, fearing that the workload might drop soon? As Black Friday and the holiday season approach, you likely know how challenging it is to strike the right balance between flexibility, costs, and legal compliance. The solution? Turn to worker leasing – or temporary staffing through a licensed agency – one of the most effective ways for companies to stay competitive without taking unnecessary risks.
And when you have a trusted partner with real experience like Smartemp, you’ll notice the difference from the very first collaboration.
With 13 years of experience in Romania’s staff leasing market and 10 years of solid partnerships with multinational companies, Smartemp has developed FlexWork – a complete solution for fast, compliant, and secure hiring.
Discover the benefits of leasing employees through Smartemp:
1. Recruitment becomes fast and efficient
How much time do you usually spend selecting candidates, scheduling interviews, and preparing employment paperwork? Smartemp FlexWork eliminates these time-consuming steps. The Smartemp team recruits temporary workers using its extensive internal database and headhunting methods, so you receive only pre-vetted, immediately available candidates. The result? Up to 70% shorter time-to-hire, with no effort on your part.
2. Minimum administrative costs for staff leasing
Do you know how much staff administration really costs? Contracts, addendums, payrolls, vacation tracking, tax filings — all add up to dozens of internal work hours. With Smartemp FlexWork, all administrative tasks are outsourced. The Smartemp team:
drafts and signs temporary employment contracts;
prepares addendums and HR decisions;
submits data to REGES Online;
calculates and pays salaries, leaves, and taxes;
manages meal vouchers and files the Form 112 declaration.
3. Full legal compliance in staff leasing
Temporary work is clearly regulated by the Romanian Labour Code, and a compliant collaboration protects you from penalties and disputes. Smartemp is a licensed temporary staffing agency, operating under fully compliant procedures and regular internal audits. That means zero legal risks, accurate contracts, and complete documentation, all handled by labour law specialists.
4. Flexibility – you decide the duration and volume
Do you need staff for one month, three months, or just a weekend? With Smartemp FlexWork, you can quickly adjust the number of employees according to your activity flow. You only pay for the actual work performed — with no fixed costs and no budget constraints. During peak periods, you can instantly scale your team up; during quieter times, you can scale down without affecting your internal structure.

A common challenge in temporary work is integrating new people. Smartemp manages this process step by step:
organizes onboarding sessions for temporary employees;
