At Tempeo Construction, we're redefining recruitment in the Infrastructure, Civil Engineering, House Building, and Trades Arenas. We believe in a refreshingly transparent, honest, and sustainable approach that benefits everyone involved. 

Supporting Quality

For clients who are comfortable with their existing charge rates and want to prioritise workforce quality, Tempeo applies the fixed margin in a way that strengthens attraction and retention.

Rather than reducing the overall labour cost, a greater proportion of the spend is directed toward worker pay. This enables Tempeo to offer more competitive rates to operatives, helping to secure individuals with the strongest available skill sets.

The outcome is improved continuity on site, reduced turnover, and better project delivery-without increasing overall spend.

Controlling Cost

For clients where cost control is the primary focus, Tempeo applies a more structured approach.

We provide a pay rate matrix informed by market research, role requirements, and location. From this, worker pay is agreed and the fixed £20 per day margin is applied.

Because high percentage margins are removed, this model typically reduces overall labour spend by preventing costs from inflating as pay rates increase. It offers a more predictable and sustainable approach to temporary construction recruitment while maintaining fair pay for workers.
