Frequently asked questions about hiring retail workers through Temper

How are retail workers rated on Temper?

After each shift, you can rate the freelancer from one to five stars. You can also share feedback on punctuality, customer interaction and relevant skills, such as till work or product knowledge. This information becomes visible on their profile, helping other businesses make informed decisions.

How is this different from using an agency?

Traditional agencies rely on intermediaries and often have less transparent pricing. Temper connects you directly with freelancers. You choose who to invite, and the entire process — from posting a shift to payment — is handled digitally in a clear and structured way. It’s faster, simpler and more efficient.

Can I create a regular group of freelancers?

Yes. After a positive collaboration, you can add a retail worker to your personal Flexpool. They will then receive priority notifications for future shifts, allowing you to work more often with people who already know your shop and can get started immediately.
