      Temp agency.

      If your company rotates through short term contractors instead of hiring full time staff who legally require certain benefits, the agency who supplies them is the “employer of record” for those staff, even though you are their employer in every practical way.

      It’s part of the legal fiction companies use to refuse to treat their employees as they’re legally required to.
