Allocate StaffDirect

Take control and realise savings. Engage workers the way you want to.

Saving NHS trusts over £210 million in agency staffing spend.

Traditionally, when filling vacant shifts, organisations must source their temporary staff from agencies. Allocate StaffDirect changes the way that organisations engage with their staff and enables them to achieve financial savings, greater control, and further transparency.

By using Allocate StaffDirect, organisations pay the temporary worker direct, pay the agency a ‘finder’s fee’, avoid any unnecessary VAT charges and the entire process is fully automated. It enables the sourcing and direct engagement of compliant candidates to change the way temporary doctors, Allied Health Professionals and more are facilitated, saving up to 27% on agency costs. Extensive reporting allows you to see at a glance the savings generated and to identify missed opportunities.

Fully integrated with Allocate Optima, combine Allocate StaffDirect with Allocate AgencyManager to provide a powerful agency-management platform.

How does Allocate StaffDirect work?

Allocate StaffDirect provides a neutral technology platform to allow organisations to pay temporary staff directly by an organisations payroll or by AllocatePay (instead of by the agencies).

The agency is then paid commission separately by the trust. The platform handles all your cost-centre information, grades and finance codes pay rates and job roles.
