Re-hiring of Labor
Re-hiring of labor refers to a situation where employees who have been recruited by an enterprise licensed to operate in labor re-hiring are subsequently employed by another employer, under the latter's management, while still maintaining an employment relationship with the labor re-hiring enterprise. According to legal regulations, the re-hiring of labor is a conditional business activity and may only be executed for certain specific jobs.
