Temporary Help Services (THS)

Overview

Temporary help services (THS), are services that are provided by the employees of temporary help firms. Temporary Help Services standing offers can be used by clients when a public servant is absent for a period of time, or when there is a requirement for additional staff during a workload increase, and there is an insufficient number of public servants available to meet the requirement. All other requirements should not be fulfilled under Temporary Help Services Standing Offers.

The Government of Canada contracts for Temporary Help Services (THS) in the National Capital Region using the Temporary Help Services (On-Line System). The THS On Line System is a tool to assist Federal Departments in their procurement of temporary help services up to $89,000.00, including all subsequent amendments and GST. There are several categories which may help clients with their requirements. Please refer to the Classifications under the Table of Contents for more information.
