Hamilton-Ryker Celebrates National Staffing Week
MARTIN, TENNESSEE (September 2015) – Hamilton-Ryker is joining staffing firms from across the nation in celebrating National Staffing Employee Week, Sept. 28–Oct. 4. Established by the American Staffing Association, this commemorative week honors the millions of temporary and contract employees working for U.S. staffing firms each week.
In Tennessee alone, 94,472 temporary and contract employees work in the staffing industry every week. These positions are across all industry sectors and professions, and the majority are full-time. These jobs also can lead to permanent work, according to ASA research.
