Staffing Company Growing Pains, Payroll and Booming Temp Jobs

Temp jobs in the US are booming with a 57 percent increase from 2009 to 2014. This means staffing companies are also feeling the boom. A growing staffing company equals an increased need for working capital, higher payrolls, and larger overhead overall. Nearly 3 million people are employed in temporary jobs from Lakeland, Florida to Omaha, Nebraska.

Analysis from CareerBuilder shows that number will continue to rise. Temporary employment is expected to increase by 13 percent (354,877 jobs) from 2014 to 2019.  Staffing agencies need to be financially prepared to handle the additional workload.
