Microsoft and Volt relationshipMost of the press that Volt receives is related to its close relationship with Microsoft. Most notably, in 2001/2002 Microsoft had significant issues regarding the employment of "permatemps".[6] Their practice of hiring temporary employees through third-party agencies and then failing to convert them to full-time employees within a reasonable amount of time resulted in a class-action lawsuit against Microsoft and a subsequent settlement.[7] As the primary provider of temporary workforce solutions for Microsoft, Volt picked up the majority of the attention related to this event. This lawsuit had significant implications for the IT industry and the way that contract employees are hired. As a direct result of this suit, contractors at Microsoft are currently required to take a hiatus of six months from Microsoft positions that require building and network access after eighteen months as an agency temp (previously 100 days after 12 months). This policy applies to all agencies, not just Volt. Other companies also impose limits on the tenure of agency contractors.
