SCOPE OF SERVICES
Consultant will work directly with the City to provide quality temporary personnel in a timely manner at the established rates. This action is consistent with the City Council' s goal to operate in a businesslike manner.

An Agreement or contract with the City does not guarantee Consultant will be selected to provide staffing services. There is no guaranteed volume of staff hours for the Agreement. The City' s Human Resources Department will coordinate all temporary staffing services for all City Departments. Following the selection of a temporary employee, the requesting department will work directly with Consultant for the duration of the individual' s assignment. Following placement, any modifications to an individual' s assignment, including replacements for terminated assignments, must be authorized by the Human Resources Department.

The City has an established merit- based recruitment system that provides every individual with fair consideration for any job for which they are skilled and qualified, regardless of their referral source. Eligible candidates will be placed on a valid " eligibility list" following recruitment open to the public. This is not a request for temp-to- hire or paid placement services. As such, the City reserves the right to hire any individual currently or previously placed with the City in a temporary employee capacity without an additional fee and/ or a requirement for the individual to work a minimum number of hours prior to being hired by the City. The City also reserves the right to reject any proposed assignment of any individual who is a current or inactive member of the California Public Employees Retirement System ( CaIPERS) or is a CaIPERS Retired Annuitant.

The City is committed to complying with all Department of Labor ( and all other applicable) laws and regulations.

Skill Categories
The City requirements for temporary staffing services may include but are not limited to the skill categories listed below. In addition, the titles of equivalent City of Ontario positions are listed for each subcategory for reference of the required skills only. Please refer to the City of Ontario' s webpage (www.ontarioca.gov) to review the position' s job description. Any temporary staff selected by the City will not be assigned to any of the City' s regular positions. Rather, temporary staff will be assigned to temporary positions and will be ineligible for membership in CaIPERS.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

PROPOSED SCOPE OF SERVICES
Consultant will work directly with the City to provide quality temporary personnel in a timely manner at the established rates. This action is consistent with the City Council' s goal to operate in a businesslike manner.

An Agreement or contract with the City does not guarantee Consultant will be selected to provide staffing services. There is no guaranteed volume of staff hours for the Agreement. The City's Human Resources Department will coordinate all temporary staffing services for all City Departments. Following the selection of a temporary employee, the requesting department will work directly with Consultant for the duration of the individual' s assignment. Following placement, any modifications to an individual' s assignment, including replacements for terminated assignments, must be authorized by the Human Resources Department.

The City has an established merit- based recruitment system that provides every individual with fair consideration for any job for which they are skilled and qualified, regardless of their referral source. Eligible candidates will be placed on a valid " eligibility list" following recruitment open to the public. This is not a request for temp-to- hire or paid placement services. As such, the City reserves the right to hire any individual currently or previously placed with the City in a temporary employee capacity without an additional fee and/ or a requirement for the individual to work a minimum number of hours prior to being hired by the City. The City also reserves the right to reject any proposed assignment of any individual who is a current or inactive member of the California Public Employees Retirement System ( CaIPERS) or is a CaIPERS Retired Annuitant.

The City is committed to complying with all Department of Labor ( and all other applicable) laws and regulations.

Skill Categories
The City requirements for temporary staffing services may include but are not limited to the skill categories listed below. In addition, the titles of equivalent City of Ontario positions are listed for each subcategory for reference of the required skills only. Please refer to the City of Ontario' s webpage (www.ontarioca. gov) to review the position' s job description. Any temporary staff selected by the City will not be assigned to any of the City' s regular positions. Rather, temporary staff will be assigned to temporary positions and will be ineligible for membership in CaIPERS.

Clerical / Administrative / Office Staff
Accounting Technical ( Accounting Technician, Accounts Payable Technician, Payroll Technician, Purchasing Assistant)
General Clerical ( Office Assistant, Office Specialist) Skilled Clerical / Administrative ( Administrative Assistant, Senior Administrative Assistant)
Customer Service Technical ( Customer Services Representative, Library Page, Museum Assistant)

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Consultant will work directly with the City to provide quality temporary personnel in a timely manner at the established rates. This action is consistent with the City Council' s goal to operate in a businesslike manner.

An Agreement or contract with the City does not guarantee Consultant will be selected to provide staffing services. There is no guaranteed volume of staff hours for the Agreement. The City' s Human Resources Department will coordinate all temporary staffing services for all City Departments. Following the selection of a temporary employee, the requesting department will work directly with Consultant for the duration of the individual' s assignment. Following placement, any modifications to an individual' s assignment, including replacements for terminated assignments, must be authorized by the Human Resources Department.

The City has an established merit- based recruitment system that provides every individual with fair consideration for any job for which they are skilled and qualified, regardless of their referral source. Eligible candidates will be placed on a valid " eligibility list" following recruitment open to the public. This is not a request for temp-to- hire or paid placement services. As such, the City reserves the right to hire any individual currently or previously placed with the City in a temporary employee capacity without an additional fee and/ or a requirement for the individual to work a minimum number of hours prior to being hired by the City. The City also reserves the right to reject any proposed assignment of any individual who is a current or inactive member of the California Public Employees Retirement System ( CaIPERS) or is a CalPERS Retired Annuitant.

The City is committed to complying with all Department of Labor ( and all other applicable) laws and regulations.

Skill Categories
The City requirements for temporary staffing services may include but are not limited to the skill categories listed below. In addition, the titles of equivalent City of Ontario positions are listed for each subcategory for reference of the required skills only. Please refer to the City of Ontario' s webpage (www.ontarioca.gov) to review the position' s job description. Any temporary staff selected by the City will not be assigned to any of the City' s regular positions. Rather, temporary staff will be assigned to temporary positions and will be ineligible for membership in CalPERS.
