"face time" at the office

[Gene Kim-Eng]

Not to mention benefits, depending on where you are.  In 
California, if you hire W2 temp workers to do the same work 
as W2 "regular" employees, after one year on the job the 
temps are entitled to benefits whether you convert them to 
"regular" employees or not.  This is the reason why many
companies that use temps put a one-year limit on them.
