Staffing for Manufacturing

In manufacturing, production demands can often be unpredictable, but the quality of your workforce shouldn’t be. Manufacturing stands as one of the cornerstones of the U.S. economy, contributing over $2 trillion in revenue and manufacturing more than 18% of the world’s goods. Yet, in this vital industry, the pursuit of top-tier talent faces challenges due to a shortage of available skilled workers.

Problems Solved

A FootBridge client was engaged with another staffing agency who did not meet their insurance requirements. All 30 were onboarded with one day notice and were able to maintain workforce continuity.

A FootBridge client relocated their manufacturing facility 60 miles north from their previous location South of Boston to North of Boston and needed 40 new operations personnel which we provided swiftly.

FootBridge developed a relationship with a local training center to train and certify candidates for these roles.

How do recruiters qualify candidates?

There’s a lot more than database searches that go into finding the right candidate for a potential job. Recruiters spend the bulk of their time sourcing, pre-screening, interviewing candidates, and investing in the client relationship. Our recruiters have years of experience sourcing for Manufacturing. We want to find you the right person.

Can hiring contract workers help to reduce long term fixed costs and avoid layoffs?

Yes, it can!

Our contract workers are full-time employees of FootBridge. They are provided with our comprehensive benefits and covered under our insurance policies (when they work a minimum of 30 hours per week).

This allows our clients to forecast costs on an hourly basis for the duration of a project. If project length is uncertain, hiring a contractor reduces your risk of adding a long-term fixed employee cost.
