"Labour hire is the concept of outsourcing a business' recruitment process to a third party (aka the labour hire agency/company). They take care of the entire hiring process, including payroll, superannuation, tax, etc., and ensure that the workers provided meet the needs and expectations of the client company. This is done in exchange for a fee. It is important to note that the workers that are provided are employed by the labour hire agency and are 'leased' temporarily to the client/company." See more.
