Objectives of the Temporary Employment Office

The goal is to promote greater diversity in recruitment and explore new ways of staffing positions within the City of Reykjavík. Workplaces are given the opportunity to hire for temporary positions to respond to both unforeseen and anticipated absences.

The system provides flexibility for individuals who seek temporary or variable jobs and/or require significant flexibility in their work hours. This also provides individuals with the opportunity to explore new positions without committing to longer periods of time.

The Temporary Employment Office is a novel solution for the City of Reykjavík based on Nordic solutions.
