Professional Scientific Staffing

Professional Scientific StaffingSM

Professional Scientific Staffing (PSS) is a staffing solutions program specifically designed to give you the “non-permanent” workforce you need for anywhere from one year to 10 years or more.

We hire, train and manage our employees to perform analytical programs at your site, using your quality systems. This innovative staffing model provides a non-permanent, long-term and cost-effective way to meet your staffing needs that is fully compliant with co-employment law.

Our PSS program is offered globally and provides the same scope of services, expertise and cGMP compliance available at the Lancaster facilities.

Lancaster Laboratories has offered PSS services for more than seven years. All of our current PSS projects are successful and growing with approximately 200 employees serving customers at 13 different global sites.

Why Lancaster Laboratories?

Our PSS program:

Solves potential co-employment issues associated with hiring traditional temporary staff since our program consists of employees who are hired, trained and managed solely by Lancaster Laboratories.

  • Costs you less than your own full-time employees.
  • Avoids the turnover rate that traditional temporary staffing programs face by offering employees benefits and a more long-term employment opportunity.
  • Provides you with the security of keeping your projects in your facility.
  • Gives you a detailed scope of the effectiveness of the staffing program through performance management metrics.
  • Offers you a contingency plan for emergency situations: If facility issues prevent on-site testing, work can be transferred to our laboratory facilities and Lancaster personnel can be trained to provide emergency manpower.
  • Provides a resource for technical expertise and support through laboratory staff at our facilities.
