3 Signs You May Need Temporary Labor

Ian Beaton • Oct 08, 2018

When it comes to completing a project, lightening the workload of another employee or ensuring a project gets completed on schedule the use of a day labor company may come in more handy than realized.

After working with over 250 different companies and hearing all the reasons why companies are using Labor Masters for their employment needs, we decided to share the 3 most common reasons companies are turning to day labor for help.

1. Your Entry Level Positions are Unfilled.
- One statement he hear quite often is , "we are all over these job boards but no one is replying"
One option we share with our clients it utilizing day labor to help with the gap in employment until you have hired. If you are hiring for a basic position such as; Housekeeping, dish-washing, clean-up crews or order packing on the hiring boards you could be utilizing temporary employees until you position is filled. These positions are low barrier to enter and can easily be filled by temporary employees.

2. You Have Highly Skilled Employees Filling in Entry Level Positions....Constantly
- No one wants to be moving employees around when there is work to be done. We often hear from clients they have been having their skilled employees moved off their own tasks to help clean the site up or help in basic entry level positions. This isn't only irritating to the employee who was just pulled off their work, but can be a huge set back when it comes to the completion of the project...on time! Don't move employees around if you don't have too. Utilizing a day labor company such as Labor Masters in this situation can be a great option.

3. You have a large order to fill and A Short Time to Complete it
- When it comes to e-commerce companies or warehouse positions getting an order counted, packed and loaded (or unloaded) is a make or break period. In most cases when a large order comes in a company may not have enough hands on deck to speed the process up. Which is where day labor comes in. Typically unloading a truck or packing boxes is pretty mundane, until there are hundreds if not thousands of orders to fulfill. We work with company all throughout the year and help in this exact situation.


Of course there are many reasons a company would need to utilize day labor but these are some of the most common we hear about. We want to ensure whether you need help for a day or a month we are always available to help.
