The provider and the employer co-exist as both are partly employers of the staff. The staff employed can work with the payroll of the new employer using the technology or system provided by the staff lease provider. The new employer does not need to hire and train staff to perform the said functions, as well as, no additional infrastructures or no new department is required since the provider will take charge of that.
