BROOKFIELD - Express
Employment Professionals, the largest privately held U.S. staffing
company, announces that temporary staffing sales by franchisees totaled
more than $2.3 billion in 2012, up 10 percent from a record $2.1 billion
in 2011. Since 2009, Express franchisees’ temporary staffing sales have
increased 101 percent as staffing companies have become a significant
driver of the nation’s job growth.
“The company’s
ongoing rapid growth is indicative of a fundamental shift in hiring
practices as employers increasingly rely on temporary workers for
flexible staffing solutions that can respond to real-time market
conditions,” said Rick Grimord, CEO of Express Employment
Professionals in Brookfield.
In 2012,
Express helped more than 367,000 workers find employment, up from
341,000 the year before. Express associates worked a total of nearly
117 million hours last year, an increase of more than 10 million
hours from 2011 and an indicator that employer confidence has
started to recover, a news release said.
