What is a Construction Staffing Agency?
Construction staffing agencies are the one-stop shop for connecting skilled tradesmen to construction companies in need of new talent. The staffing process can be tedious and time-consuming, as well as risky. Staffing in-house becomes problematic when time is spent sifting through candidates instead of working on projects, keeping companies from reaching top efficiency and staying on track. If you need to fill roles for your current or upcoming projects, you can simply reach out to a skilled trades staffing company like Skilled Trades Partners that will do all the hiring work for you, providing reliable and qualified candidates for your next open position.
How a Construction Staffing Agency Saves You Time and Money
Easier hiring process
Setting up job listings, searching for candidates, interviewing, and the rest of the hiring process never has an exact timeline, which is why it’s typically the best option to work with a skilled trades staffing company that can take care of everything for you. They’ll make sure that candidates have specific traits and skills that you’re looking for, as well making sure whoever gets hired to work for you fully aligns with your construction company’s values.
With the skills gap still a major issue, great talent in construction is hard to come by. Now we all know the most dreaded part of bringing someone new to the team… the paperwork, onboarding, and figuring out their benefits. When you work with a construction staffing agency, they’ll take care of that for you – so you never have to worry about getting contracts signed, doing payroll or providing benefits.
Access to quality skilled laborers when you need them
High-quality staffing agencies will build relationships with both construction companies and skilled tradesmen to form a network of reliable and trustworthy people. They’re experienced in knowing what to look for when recommending and connecting companies with candidates. This extensive web of contacts is one of the many benefits of working with agencies.
You will also have the reassurance of skill quality and level when you get your skilled tradesmen through a New England construction staffing company since the candidates have already been screened, interviewed, and verified by a trusted agency that knows the ins and outs of construction projects. Plus, there is little to no risk of taking on anyone hired through a staffing agency since certain skilled trades staffing agencies like Skilled Trades Partners even provide a satisfaction guarantee to make sure you’re 100% happy with your new hire.
Flexibility & Scalability
Utilizing staffing agencies for construction projects will reduce the costs that your company takes on throughout the entire hiring process. Agencies can help you skip the training, paperwork, and payroll while you remain in control of labor costs.
Sometimes, projects demand more people to get the project to the finish line, which can happen unexpectedly or at inconvenient times. With staffing agencies, companies can quickly scale their workforce as needed and make sure things are kept on track. This allows a project-based approach, with most offering the ability to choose what length of job you’re searching to fill. This could be temporary or temp-to-hire, where you can try a candidate out before converting to a full-time employee. Direct hire is also available, so you can add a full-time member to your team right away.
