If you’re not sure whether your operations might benefit from you using a specialized warehouse staffing temp agency, consider the following advantages.
When you’re running a business in the light industrial sector, it’s common to bring on temporary staff to meet surges in demand and fill vacated roles. While these temporary workers are beneficial to help you meet your staffing needs, they can also cost your company in numerous ways if you don’t take the necessary precautions.
Whether your company is in search of an experienced forklift operator or general warehouse worker, we specialize in finding high-caliber employees with our unique approach to staffing.
Light industrial warehouses constantly have fluctuating staffing needs to meet variations in production and distribution demands. That’s why many large distribution and manufacturing facilities partner with warehouse staffing agencies like Action Logistix - to provide for "just in time" production staffing. However, not every staffing agency is capable of providing an on-site staffing manager to efficiently monitor and manage these production variations.
With 2020 soon coming to an end, employers are starting to look ahead to 2021 to better understand the economic outlook of their industry and the country at large. With the COVID-19 pandemic still ongoing, the upcoming change of presidential administrations, and uncertainty surrounding additional stimulus packages, the future’s uncertainty has many business owners on edge.

When hiring for an open position, whether skilled or unskilled, it can be overwhelming to see the vast amount of resumes and applications that you'll likely receive. How do you pick the right candidate? Do you go with the candidate with the most impressive resume? Do you pick the person who has the most years in warehouse and manufacturing experience? What if you hire someone with a flawless resume, but find that while the applicant you chose met all the requirements on paper, when it comes time to do the job, they're needing a lot more training than you feel they should? These are the exact reasons why we use pre-employment testing in our applicant screening process.
When it comes to staffing your warehouse or manufacturing facility, your initial focus may be just making sure you’ve got enough heads to man every position so that hopefully deadlines get met. Unfortunately, just filling a position with anyone willing to work can ultimately cost you time and money in the long run. It pays to find employees who want to show up and want to help your business. Those employees that see the value in helping you grow (which in turn, helps them grow), are the type of employees you want manning your warehouse.
Hiring can be a very difficult process, especially when time is of the essence, but you know that making the wrong hire can really hurt your overall cost and ultimately cost you projects. Fortunately for you, our specialized best-in-class prescreening process evaluates potential employees for warehousing and manufacturing competency before assigning to your company!
Our proven and unique evaluations are geared solely for the logistics industry with the goal of finding the highest caliber employees to increase your productivity and reduce turnover. One of the reasons we are so successful in staffing companies like yours, is that we implement behavior-based interview questions and strategies to help you get past first impressions and ultimately hire the right fit for your company culture.

As many warehouse and plant managers already know, staffing can be an HR nightmare. You've got minimal time to ramp up manpower for upcoming project deadlines, and it probably feels like you're spinning your wheels, but not gaining traction. As a solution, you might have decided that hiring a staffing agency to fill those voids is the best option for you. But will any generalized staffing agency work?
