SAFETY
LABORMAX STAFFING PRIDES ITSELF IN MAKING SAFETY OUR X FACTOR.
How you can do your part to help slow the spread of COVID-19.
The CDC recommends that people wear masks in public settings and when around people who don’t live in your household, especially when other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. Masks may help prevent people who have COVID-19 from spreading the virus to others. Masks are an additional step to help slow the spread of COVID-19 when combined with everyday preventive actions and social distancing. It is important to always remove masks correctly and wash your hands after handling or touching a used mask.
Below are the CDC guidelines on How to Wear and Wash Cloth Masks.
We encourage the reporting of near misses in the workplace, hazards, and/or safety suggestions you may have. Please let us know of questions, comments or concerns and always remember Safety Starts with YOU!

It's getting recruited away by everyone else trying to staff the same surge. This is the part most operators underestimate. The crowds are predictable. The labor gap that comes with them is what catches teams flat-footed.

The April employment report delivered a stronger-than-expected signal for employers: growth is happening, but companies still need flexibility to keep pace.

That number came in well above the expected median forecast of 65,000 jobs, according to a Bloomberg survey of economists. Temporary staffing also moved in a positive direction. U.S. temporary employment rose by 7,900 jobs, reaching 2.5 million temporary jobs in April. While temporary employment remains below its March 2022 peak of nearly 3.2 million, the latest numbers suggest that staffing activity is beginning to firm up. Staffing Industry Analysts Economist Michael Schultz described the April results as “surprisingly strong,” adding that “this is the first time since last summer where a strong month was not immediately followed by a weak month.” For companies evaluating their workforce plans, that matters.
