Who to contact and when

Last updated: October 6, 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

Ascen (support@ascen.com). These can't be changed from your own account, and your staffing partner can't change them either, because they are tied to your login and to your payroll and tax records. See How to update your personal information.

Benefits enrollment (US employees)

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

Who your legal employer is

See Who is my employer of record and who do I contact?

Anything else / not sure

support@ascen.com — we'll route you

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.
