The Smartest Solution For Construction Staffing and Personnel in a Recession

Jan. 23, 2009 - PRLog -- Staffing companies are saving jobs and hiring Skilled Tradesmen in the construction industry during this tough economic time. Construction Jobs are usually staffed with skilled tradesmen such as Ironworkers, Pipefitters, Pipe welders, Millwrights, HVAC, and Electricians - these industrial trades are commonly used in commercial and industrial construction as they have been for the past 25 years.

These skilled trades require years of practice and continuing education to master and always require certification of one form or another. Construction Staffing companies have a nationwide reach, enabling tradesmen to work anywhere in the country during these tough times. Skilled Tradesmen can not count on finding local work; these trades are to much of a niche. To find work as a skilled tradesman you must consider traveling to out of town projects where you can earn great pay, bonuses, and per-diem in some cases.

Construction staffing and personnel companies like Grus, Inc. call employees daily to check their employment status and to keep records updated. Skilled workers and tradesmen can also sign up for an automatic Hot Jobs notification service to ensure real time notification of the best opportunities.

Contractors notice these benefits; a company that keeps constant contact with its workforce is a tremendous asset because they generally have the highest quality workers. In these tough times lots of good men and women in the commercial and industrial construction industry are out of work. These construction personnel and staffing companies now have a large pool of some of the best tradesmen and women in the United States. If you need additional Journeymen for your construction project you should consider staffing with a construction personnel company.

The benefits out weigh the costs, usually a staffing and construction personnel company can handle all of the employment background checks, drug screening, skill assessment, payroll, workers compensation, child support, and tax administration - leaving the Contractor and Sub-Contractor to focus on the construction project as a whole. These time saving services not only make working with a construction personnel company enjoyable but they also demonstrate a smart approach to construction management in a recession.

Being smart with your workforce management is necessary in these tough times, making hiring mistakes can cost a significant amount of money in the long run, good quality works and tradesmen can be tough to find if your only looking in your local area. To be smart about your hiring process you must think outside the box and outside the state.
