Staffing and Recruiting Firms we help

  • Executive search and recruiting firms

    Clients rely on your rankings, search results and placements, so the professional liability form needs to name that work.

  • Staffing agencies

    You place temporary workers, so workers’ compensation turns on which entity employs them, where they work and what they do.

  • Employer-of-record and payroll providers

    You run payroll for client workforces and sometimes reach client funds, which raises cyber and crime questions.

  • Talent platforms and screening services

    Applicant identities and screening results raise data questions, and the screening itself is a professional service to describe.

Insurance Staffing and Recruiting Firms usually carry

The policies companies like yours are usually asked for, and when each one comes up.

  • Professional errors and omissions (E&O)

    Clients rely on candidate rankings, recruiting advice, search results or placement services.

  • Cyber liability

    The firm stores applicant identities, screening results, compensation records or client hiring files.

  • Employment practices liability

    The company makes or advises on hiring, promotion, discipline, accommodation or termination decisions.

  • Workers’ compensation

    You hire employees, supply temporary workers or add workers in another state.

  • Crime

    Staff can access client payroll, deposits, candidate funds or payment instructions.

When Staffing and Recruiting Firms need insurance

  • 01

    Clients rely on your candidate rankings or placements

    Check that the professional liability form names recruiting, assessment and placement, and ask how it treats a missed requirement.

  • 02

    You’re supplying temporary workers or adding a state

    Workers’ compensation turns on which entity employs each worker, what they do and where they work, so update those details before the first assignment.

  • 03

    You store applicant identities and screening results

    Ask whether cyber terms address applicant and employee data, your screening vendors, defense and interruption.

  • 04

    You advise on hiring, discipline or termination

    That advice raises employment practices questions, including which entities and insured persons the form names.

  • 05

    Staff can reach client payroll or candidate funds

    Ask which crime form, if any, speaks to those exact funds, users and loss scenarios, and what verification conditions apply.

Questions from Staffing and Recruiting Firms

Also known as staffing agency insurance, staffing company insurance, temp agency insurance, recruiting firm insurance, recruitment agency insurance, recruiter insurance, employer of record insurance and EOR insurance.

What insurance does a staffing agency need?

If you employ the workers you place, workers’ compensation and employment practices are central, with crime for client property they handle. Recruiters who only refer lean on professional E&O and cyber for candidate records. Spot writes up who employs whom.

Who handles workplace safety when a business places a temporary worker?

OSHA treats it as a duty shared by the staffing agency and the host, depending on who controls the hazards. That’s safety guidance, not an answer about whose policy responds, so Spot records who employs and supervises each worker and asks insurers how they treat the arrangement.

Does a recruiter have the same background-check duties as an employer?

Not necessarily, and the employer guidance doesn’t settle a recruiter’s duties. Spot describes the screening you actually perform and asks how professional and cyber forms treat it.

What does a staffing firm send for quotes?

Your service model, which entity employs placed workers, the states they work in, your screening vendors and records, any payroll or fund access, and a sample client agreement. Your Spot team assembles it with you.

Our broker already handles our staffing program. Can Spot work alongside them?

Yes. Spot works with the broker who knows your staffing program, or helps you switch to one who places more staffing accounts. Spot isn’t a substitute for that broker, and it takes no commissions on premiums.
