P’s & Q’s rates include payroll taxes, benefits, and workers’ compensation insurance. Also, with P’s & Q’s you don’t pay for vacations, sick time and statutory holidays – you only pay for the hours the substitute is actually at your site. And finally, with P’s & Q’s you also avoid all of the costs of recruitment & hiring, payroll processing, and HR that are associated with the employee. For a fair comparison you need to add all of these costs on to the base hourly rate you pay your staff.
