Attached is the negotiated Renewal Agreement for Educational Staffing provided through Kelly Services.  Clay County has a current contract with Kelly Services.  This renewal will continue the  contract period from August 02, 2018 through August 01, 2023.  The contract period is for five (5) years.  The contract has an exit clause that can be enacted by either party with a written thirty (30) day notice. Through negotiations the markup cost has been reduced to 1.33 for all substitutes except for long term substitutes, which was reduced to 1.295.  This is the lowest markup in the state of Florida.

As the provider of staffing services, Kelly Services shall be the employer of Assigned Employees and shall be responsible for the staffing services listed: recruit, interview, select, and hire Assigned Employees; place Assigned Employees according to SDCC requirements; pay Assigned Employees their wages and provide them the benefits that Kelly Services offers to them as Kelly Services Employees; pay insurance premiums (e.g. Medicare), withhold payroll taxes (e.g. FICA) and fulfill its obligations for unemployment compensation; provide workers compensation benefits; and maintain Assigned Employees personnel and payroll records related to their employment by Kelly Services.

Original Agreement was Board approved October 15, 2013, and has been used successfully to provide quality substitutes to the district.

Upon approval by the Board, we expect Kelly Services to continue providing quality substitutes with newly negotiated reduced rates and same conditions as when the original agreement was awarded

The district ensures fiscal responsibility and equitable distribution of resources.

Approve the renewal agreement with Kelly Services.
