There are numerous benefits of staffing and various published articles to back up why. All you have to do is search the internet for “benefits of staffing agency” to find such information. Here are a few reasons that we feel we are a benefit to our clients as well as to job seekers
Expertise
We are a niche staffing agency only providing staffing for the blue collar industries since 1991. That gives us an advantage over other staffing companies that provide staffing to many different fields. Our recruiters know your industry, the lingo, and the challenges associated with the blue collar field. We also know what the going pay rates are for various types of positions and can help companies and employees in determining current market trends.
Reduction of your workload
Do you receive mounds of applications and resumes for your job openings? Do you feel reviewing resumes and applications consumes too much of your time? We can help you offload that workload and present you only candidates worthy of your review.
Cost
Companies using staffing agencies can result in lower costs associated with hiring adequate staff to recruit applicants. However, because we manage the entire employment process, we also relieve employers of costs related to pre-employment skills testing, background investigations and drug screening. In addition, clients save money related to the expense of payroll processing and benefits administration. Small employers find that they can rely on staffing agencies to provide them with qualified employees at remarkable savings.
Job seekers using staffing agencies have huge advantages in helping them find a job. Staffing companies have large networks of client companies with access directly to decision makers. They can help employees with their resumes and in most cases get them an interview faster than they can on their own. All this is available to a job seeker at no cost.
Network
Staffing agencies have a large network of available workers. Employers looking to hire seasonal workers, for example; would need to advertise job openings, interview candidates and process new hire documentation for a relatively short period of employment. Staffing agencies, on the other hand, may have relationships with workers they’ve already identified as dependable, reliable and conscientious and who can fill a vacancy in a matter of days, or even hours. The network that staffing agencies maintain is a broad one from which they can tap potential employees who can fill any position an employer might have or anticipate.
Retention
Clients that engage in utilizing our services for temporary employees get an opportunity to observe employee performance, qualifications and work habits before offering the temporary worker a permanent job. This can cut down on turnover once the trial period is complete and both the employee and employer are satisfied the job is a good fit. Using staffing agencies for high-volume placements can result in tremendous savings related to turnover, training costs and the intangible costs of turnover, such as employee morale.
Success
We have a high success rate of matching the right employee with the right employer. We gauge ourselves by the number of our employees that roll full time with our client companies. In over 20 years of business, we have historically seen 70-80% of our workers placed become full time employees with our client companies. That says a lot to us! We feel that percentage makes us a valuable asset to both job seekers and client companies.
