Built for speed, volume, and repeat placements

Temporary staffing teams need a reference process that scales — without endless chasing and admin.

Start dates can’t wait

Every day a reference is delayed is a day your candidate might accept another offer. Automated chasing helps you confirm starts quicker, reduce candidate drop-off, and keep your clients’ shift patterns covered. At 99p per reference, speed doesn’t have to cost a fortune.

High-volume onboarding

When you’re onboarding 20, 50, or 100 workers at once for a warehouse ramp-up or seasonal peak, you need a repeatable reference workflow that scales. RefAssure handles one reference or one hundred with the same process and effort.

Client compliance standards

Onsite contracts and managed service agreements often require documented pre-employment screening. PDF reference reports with timestamped audit trails give you clean evidence that checks were completed — ready for client audits.

Consultant time is expensive

Your recruiters should be filling roles, not chasing referees by phone. Automation frees up delivery time and improves throughput. At 99p per reference vs £15–25 in staff time for a manual check, the ROI is immediate.

Reference checking built for every temp sector

Whether you’re placing workers in warehouses, kitchens, factories or offices, RefAssure scales with your hiring volume — from just 99p per reference.

Warehouse & logistics

Peak season ramp-ups mean onboarding dozens of pickers, packers and drivers at once. RefAssure handles the volume without your team spending hours chasing referees. Automated follow-ups and PDF reports mean you can evidence screening for managed service contracts and client audits.

Industrial & manufacturing

Factory placements, production line workers, and engineering temps all benefit from a consistent reference process. Documented references help demonstrate due diligence to clients and support health and safety compliance on site.

Hospitality & catering

High turnover and fast starts are the norm in hospitality recruitment. RefAssure’s automated chasing and mobile-friendly referee forms mean references come back faster — so your chefs, waiting staff and event workers can start on time.

Seasonal & event staffing

Christmas peaks, summer events, festivals and agricultural seasons all require rapid onboarding of large workforces. At 99p per reference with no subscription, you only pay when you’re hiring — perfect for agencies with seasonal demand spikes.

High-volume temp references without the admin — from 99p

If you’re looking for temp staffing reference checks, warehouse recruitment references, or a scalable way to handle high-volume onboarding, RefAssure provides a repeatable process from request to report. Referees complete an online form, reminders run automatically, and your PDF report is ready to file or share with clients.

Most temp agencies still chase references manually — phoning referees, sending individual emails, and filing responses in spreadsheets. That process costs £15–25 per reference in staff time. RefAssure automates the entire workflow for just 99p per reference, saving your consultants hours every week and giving you professional PDF reports with full audit trails.

Unlike enterprise reference checking platforms that charge £3–5 per reference plus monthly subscriptions, RefAssure uses a simple pay-as-you-go credit system. No contract, no minimum spend, no subscription. Buy credits when you need them and use them at your own pace — ideal for agencies with fluctuating temp volumes.

Temporary recruitment reference checking FAQs

Quick answers for temp agencies, onsite teams and volume hiring recruiters.

Do temp agencies need to check references?

Many temporary recruitment businesses complete employment references as part of pre-employment screening, particularly for repeat placements, onsite contracts, and roles requiring consistent workforce standards. Some managed service agreements and client contracts specifically require documented reference checks before workers can start on site.

How does automated reference checking help temporary recruitment?

Temp recruitment moves fast and manual reference chasing slows everything down. RefAssure automates reference requests, follow-ups and report generation so you can reduce delays, confirm starts quicker, and free up your consultants to focus on filling roles instead of chasing referees.

Yes. RefAssure is ideal for volume hiring across warehouse, industrial, logistics, hospitality and seasonal staffing where speed and consistency matter. The automated workflow handles the same volume whether you’re onboarding 10 workers or 100.

How quickly can I get a completed reference?

Most references are completed within 1 to 3 days. Automated email and optional SMS chasing significantly reduces delays caused by unresponsive referees, helping you confirm start dates faster than manual methods which typically take 1–2 weeks.

A professional PDF report including employment dates, role held, performance ratings, rehire eligibility, referee comments, and a complete timestamped audit trail. Download it, store it in your compliance files, or share it with clients as evidence of screening.
