Zimmermann Construction Staffing: Construction Staffing Firms And Craft Personnel Thriving From Gas Drilling

Zimmermann Construction Staffing answers the call for skilled tradesmen and construction personnel who they recently employed for per diem jobs on the pipelines and infrastructure of North Dakota, to bring them back home to their east-coast families.

PANAMA CITY, FL, October 18, 2012

Now the industry lifeblood for many northeastern states, oil and natural gas deposits spanning West Virginia, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and beyond have breathed life back into an otherwise sluggish economy. Zimmermann Construction Staffing has answered the call for skilled tradesmen by reaching out to many of the construction personnel who they had employed recently for per diem jobs on the pipelines and infrastructure of North Dakota, to bring them back home to their east-coast families. Construction staffing companies such as Zimmermann Staffing share this view, as they are able to connect apprentice and journeymen construction personnel with the employers who once again need their skilled hands.

The construction staffing industry saw dips in construction activity by as much as 50 percent over the summer of 2012. Fortunately, half of those areas affected have recovered as a result of the oil and gas boom. After such a lull in construction and consequently a lull in communication with past employees, many contractors have turned to construction recruitment companies to outsource their construction personnel. Budget-friendly temporary construction labor and skilled labor staffing at a time like this, allows a contractor to refocus his or her time and energy into winning more of those valuable boom-sourced jobs.

Boom related contracts, by their very nature, are valuable--not just because of the burst of revenue they generate, but the growing presence that the contractor gets in the construction community. When contractors net a number of big boom contracts, word tends to get out and they tend to land even more work. Most have seen it firsthand--it's the "the rich get richer" effect. Big players in the market have taken this ideal to heart and reached out to staffing companies to field construction personnel for a number of their projects.

With new jobs in the natural gas industry on the rise, the demand for employment of temporary staffing to field qualified journeymen, apprentice and labor hands in the quantities that are needed is also on the rise. Zimmermann Construction Staffing is no exception to the rule in that they are flooded with petro-related jobs not only in the Dakotas now, but in the eastern states as well. Zimmermann Staffing is bringing home many of their construction personnel--a number of electricians, ironworkers, pipefitters, pipe welders, crane operators and riggers are choosing to give up per diem positions for the chance to head east to work close to home and be with their families.
