Who to contact and when

Last updated: August 21, 2026

Applies to: everyone — workers, partners, and clients.

Summary: The fastest answer depends on the question. Day-to-day assignment questions go to your staffing partner; platform and payroll issues go to Ascen at support@ascen.com; international employees have an in-country HR specialist; privacy requests go to privacy@ascen.com; partners with account-level questions go to their Customer Success Manager.

Workers

Your question is about…

Contact

Your assignment — schedule, duties, rates, extensions, ending

Your staffing partner (the agency that placed you)

The platform — timesheets, onboarding steps, documents, direct deposit

Ascen — email support@ascen.com

Your paycheck — missing pay, wrong amount

Ascen — support@ascen.com. Check that your timesheet was approved first, since unapproved hours are the most common cause — but the pay correction itself is ours, not your staffing partner's. See I wasn't paid this period — who do I contact?

Payroll in Canada (pay stub, TD1, T4, ROE)

Ascen — support@ascen.com (not your staffing partner)

Payroll as an international employee

Your in-country HR contact

Changing your name, email, or phone

Your staffing partner (these can't be changed from your account)

Benefits enrollment (US employees)

The benefits contacts — see Who do I contact about my healthcare benefits?

Who your legal employer is

One rule of thumb

If it's about the work — your schedule, your assignment, who you report to — talk to your staffing partner. If it's about the platform, your pay, your taxes, or your employment record, email support@ascen.com. If it's about your data, use the privacy channels. When in doubt, support@ascen.com will get you to the right person.
