Attention employers: Stay strong, and hang in there, better times are coming! Labor Solutions understands the pressures you are under lately to keep business running smoothly while having difficulties maintaining a full staff of workers. You might be tempted to loosen some of your hiring requirements, but we advise against that. Read on to learn why.
Stand Firm in the Qualifications You Require
This is a tough time to run a business. The economy has been in flux, and people have legitimate concerns about being around other people. Labor Solutions is aware of the current challenges you are facing in attracting qualified applicants for your open positions. However, lowering the bar will not serve you or your customers well.
If the positions you need to fill require certain levels of education, training, or certification, it could be illegal for you to hire applicants that don’t meet the criteria. Labor Solutions can screen candidates to ensure that they are qualified to do the work you need to be done.
Continue to ensure that your potential new hires have sufficient experience to meet your needs as well. Hiring too many wet-behind-the-ears newbies can have a seriously detrimental effect on the quality of service your company provides. Don’t risk your reputation for quality by skimping on your experience requirements.
Take the time to thoroughly vet all new hires. If background screening is part of your process, continue to do those checks. Labor Solutions can do various types of screening to ensure that the candidates that you do hire are going to be people that you can trust. Let us handle the hiring process so you can focus on running your business in a manner consistent with your established procedures.
