As Workforce Shifts To Temporary, More Companies Celebrate National Staffing Employee Week

EATONTOWN, NJ, September 11, 2010 (Press-News.org) Snelling Staffing - The Wyckoff Group (TWG) will pay tribute to millions of workers next week by celebrating National Staffing Employee Week from September 13th - 19th. The American Staffing Association established holiday honors nearly 2.5 million Americans employed by staffing firms every day.

"We are very excited to honor the remarkable impact our workers have made for our business partners and local economy," says Frank Wyckoff, President of Snelling Staffing - TWG. "This week of celebration commemorates their fine work and contributions."

Wyckoff reports that in the past few months, Snelling Staffing - TWG's client organizations have seen a significant increase in orders for temporary and contingent workers. This increase is being felt throughout the staffing industry, a shift that doesn't come as a surprise to Wyckoff.

"Employers utilize these specialized employees during a recovering economy because it offers them more flexibility," says Wyckoff. "Companies want to address their increased production demand levels without making long-term commitments to increased head counts."

Wyckoff says that this type of employment strategy is critical for companies in recovery mode. He states that the benefits of this approach include the prevention of overworked staff members, a reduction in overtime costs, the removal of unemployment liability and the elimination of payrolling, benefits spending and administrative costs associated with employment. Additionally, Wyckoff states that temporary workers are so determined to prove their value to employers for future permanent positions that they often outperform established staff members.

An article by MSNCB, "Need A Job? Contract Work Can Be New Normal," supports Wyckoff's claim. The article states that staffing firms across the country are seeing increased demands for contingent workers, while Monster.com reports a 46.2% boost of job postings for contract positions.

"With a larger number of temporary and contract workers in the field this year, I have a feeling more organizations will be recognizing National Staffing Employee Week," adds Wyckoff. "These workers have embraced this employment trend and have excelled through this shift in employment."

Local businesses use Snelling Staffing to contract qualified people in a diverse range of positions, including Administrative, Clerical, Light Industrial, Accounting & Finance, Legal and Biopharmaceutical work. Businesses from all industries use Snelling to find talented and qualified employees for both temporary and career positions.
