BENEFITS
The People Connection is dedicated to maintaining our superior staff of temporary employees. In order to attract and retain YOU as part of our highest quality work force we offer top pay and extensive benefits. Our employees tell us that once they've worked for us they don't want to work for anyone else!
Our program rewards you for dedicated service. All of your hours accumulate over time, so even after a long break, we combine your current and previous hours so you continuously earn credit toward a bonus. All bonuses are based on hours processed for payment.
Lunch bonus
After you work 8 weeks for 24 hours or more each week, we will award you additional pay (based on your current rate of pay) for one-half hour each day you work thereafter. You will continue to receive this bonus as long as you work 20 hours per week and at least 5 hours per day.
One week bonus
Once 3,000 hours are accrued you will receive 40 hours of additional pay every 1,000 hours of paid work. Your pay will be based on the rate that you most frequently work during the 1,000 hours. After you have worked 10,000 hours, we will accelerate your one-week bonus. You will be awarded one week (40 hours) of additional pay for each 700 hours that you work for The People Connection (instead of 1,000 hours as before). Again your bonus will be based on the rate you most frequently earned during the 700 hours.
Holiday bonus
The People Connection will begin to award holiday pay after 500 hours are accrued. You receive one paid holiday for each 500 hours worked thereafter. We honor 10 holidays that are potential days off for you: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Day, President's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. You must work the business day before and after the holiday in order to be eligible. Once you have worked 6,000 hours, we will award you with one day's pay for the Friday after Thanksgiving. This will give you 11 possible holidays a year.
Transit Benefit
Upon employment with The People Connection we provide a pre-tax transit benefit in the form of our Clipper Card program. You decide how much money you need deducted from your paycheck up to $230.00 per month and you receive those funds in pre tax dollars on your Clipper Card.
Referral Bonus
Whenever you refer a new employee or customer to The People Connection, we will thank you with $100 after the employee has worked 60 hours, or the customer has used our service for 8 hours. The bonus for referring an experienced corporate or litigation secretary or paralegal is $200 after 60 hours worked, as above.
Paid Sick Leave
You start to accrue sick time as soon as you begin employment with us: 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked. You may accrue sick leave up to a maximum of 72 hours. Your accrued sick leave is available for your use after 90 days of employment. You may use sick leave when necessary for your own illness, injury, & medical appointments, or to care for a family member or designated person for these reasons. To designate one non family person for whom you would like to be able to use paid sick leave, you must complete The People Connection Designation Form within your first 10 days of employment. If interested, please ask us for the Form.
