Instawork offers several advantages over traditional staffing agencies specializing in the kitchen industry:
Flexibility: Instawork allows businesses to quickly scale up or down based on their needs. This is particularly useful in the kitchen industry, which often experiences fluctuating demand.
Quality of workers: Instawork workers are pre-screened and vetted closely to ensure they meet all the prerequisites of the kitchen positions they apply for (i.e. line cooks are asked to verify their food preparation skills). This leads to higher quality service compared to traditional staffing agencies.
Ease of Use: Instawork's mobile app makes it easy for businesses to schedule shifts, view worker profiles, and manage payments, saving time and reducing administrative burden.
Transparency: Businesses can view detailed profiles of workers, including their experience, ratings, and reviews. This level of transparency is often not available with traditional staffing agencies.
Fast Payments: Instawork ensures workers are paid weekly, which can be a strong incentive for high-quality workers to choose Instawork over other options.
Incentives and Rewards: Instawork's feedback and reward system encourages workers to consistently deliver high-quality service. Workers can attain "Top Pro" status, which offers benefits such as instant pay and early acces to shifts. Learn more about the Top Pro Program here.
Operational Efficiency: Instawork's high-tech approach allows for real-time tracking and management of kitchen staff, which can lead to greater operational efficiency.
Cost Efficiency: By allowing businesses to adjust their kitchen staffing levels based on actual needs, Instawork can help reduce unnecessary labor costs.
Kitchen workers who sign up on Instawork have to create a detailed profile. We collect and verify over 30 skills data points, including work history, skill quizzes, professional references, and valid certifications.
We’re different from temp agencies in because these data points are available to you to review via their profile. Plus, once they start completing shifts through Instawork, we continue to assess their work performance with ratings, feedback, and on-time metrics.
Instawork offers flexible, all-inclusive pricing to ensure you only pay for the hours you use. Hourly business rates include the Instawork Professional’s hourly rate, Occupational Accident Insurance coverage, and applicable taxes and fees. Instawork handles all billing and worker payments.
Pricing is clearly stated before you submit your booking request on our platform.
For those with recurring or large volume needs, we also have custom pricing. Please speak with a Partnerships Manager by requesting a demo.
