“We are a busy manufacturing company that relies on temporary staff to keep our production lean and effective.”
“This operation has a training curve so it takes a bit for the temporaries to become truly productive. ABL temporaries stay and are motivated, I think because they are paid fairly, yet ABL’s bill rate is very competitive.”
“ABL has a communication approach to service: They spend a lot of time coaching the employees on what to expect before they come in. Then they talk to them after the shift and throughout the assignment. That really prevents problems and constant turnover. What a difference it makes.”
