What is flexpool? An interesting question that you, as a manager, will certainly benefit from. Do you have difficulty finding qualified personnel, or do you have to deal with many busy periods? How nice would it be to be able to deploy workers flexibly in order to achieve your targets without any problems? 

A flex pool consists of a group of workers who are available on demand. This means that staff can be deployed flexibly. This is particularly beneficial when there is a temporary staff shortage due to vacations or absences of permanent employees. This ensures that you always have suitable staff available.

Flexpool in healthcare

‍

The Dutch healthcare sector has been under considerable pressure in recent years. Understaffing combined with a global pandemic has led to a shortage of healthcare personnel. In addition, the government is implementing substantial budget cuts, which means that healthcare institutions are not always able to offer their employees temporary or permanent contracts. Many healthcare institutions are therefore increasingly making use of a flex pool in which they can deploy flexible healthcare personnel on an on-call basis.  

What are the advantages of flexpool?

‍

The main advantage of a flex pool is flexibility. It's a great solution if your company doesn't have a constant flow of work. You can bring in extra workers during peak periods and scale back when the workload decreases. Flexible staff are also a godsend when permanent employees are absent due to vacation, illness, or leave. With a flex pool, you always have a stable safety net for your organization's personnel planning.
