Praktica Uitzendgroep

Praktica Uitzendgroep, which trades as Praktica Uitzendbureau, sets out to bring employer and employee together under the best possible conditions, and says it selects quality employers so that the number of vacancies never comes at the cost of a good working atmosphere. The company describes itself as betrokken, eerlijk and flexibel. It fits itself to a client's need for both quantity and quality of staff, treats continuous monitoring and regular evaluations as a matter of course, shares successful strategies from other sectors where they may help, and keeps costs and rates open to discussion with clear risk management so employers know exactly what they will pay.

Five services are offered: an Adhoc Service delivering qualified people immediately for urgent jobs and temporary assignments, werving en selectie for employers, uitzending, payrolling that takes over salary administration and employer charges, and detachering without employer risk. The vacancies show the sectors it covers, including cleaners for trains and stations, logistics staff at Schiphol Airport, spoelkeuken staff in Amsterdam, Hoofddorp and Schiphol, full time stairwell cleaners in and around Amsterdam, bouwopruimers with or without VCA in the Noord-Holland region and verkeersregelaars in the Amsterdam region. Named client companies include Asito, ATALIAN Global Services, CSU, D and B The Facility Group, GOM Schoonhouden, G. Raggers en Zn BV, Vebego and Schiphol.

The office is at Jan Evertsenstraat 119, 1057 BT Amsterdam, with the telephone number 020 789 1007. Employers weighing up a partnership are pointed to the certificates that the company says guarantee its reliability and quality, among them NEN 4400-1 certification, NBBU membership and contract, KiWa, Stichting PAWW, the Stipp pension fund, SBB and Oribi id solutions, alongside an anti discrimination policy, a personnel handbook, house rules, a complaints procedure and a published policy statement. Flexibility is presented as integral to the business: outside the hours when intercedenten rest, the company says it is always available to solve problems, whether that means extra vehicles from its own fleet or mobilising an additional team when demand spikes unexpectedly.
