Redmond, WA - September 12, 2011 - Protingent Staffing, a niche provider of highly skilled engineering and IT talent to companies nationwide, joins staffing companies across the country in celebrating National Staffing Employee Week, Sept. 12–18, established by the American Staffing Association to pay tribute to the millions of Americans who are employed by staffing firms every business day.
“National Staffing Employee Week is an acknowledgment to the important and talented temporary and contract employees who make vital contributions to the nation’s work force and economy,” said Donn Harvey, President of Protingent Staffing.
According to the ASA and the U.S, Bureau of Labor and Statistics, an average of 32,859 people are employed by Washington State staffing companies each day. Many of these positions are in the technology industry. Staffing firms such as Protingent Staffing offer a variety of flexibility and benefits to both employees and businesses.
Protingent Staffing offers contract, contract-to-hire and direct-hire services. With contract staffing, a business can keep projects on schedule by managing peak workloads, rapidly staffing short-term projects and bring in an expert with a hard to find specialty skill. Protingent Staffing saves businesses time and money by searching and choosing potential employees from a pool of specialized, highly skilled candidates. The comprehensive screening process at Protingent Staffing allows them to not only match the skills and knowledge of a candidate, but also evaluate their personality and how they could fit into an organization.
For those re-entering the work force, or looking for something new, contract employment offers many benefits such as when, where and how they want to work in addition to choosing among a variety of diverse and challenging assignments. Contract work also provides a bridge to direct-hire employment. People can try out a prospective employer and showcase their skills for a permanent job.
“We’re proud to be involved in an industry that provides so many benefits to employees, to businesses, and to America’s economy,” added Harvey.
