“I want to know if there is demand for staffing.”
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the employment services industry—made up of employment placement agencies, temporary help services, and professional employer organizations—has grown from 3.5 million jobs in 2004 and are projected to reach 5.1 million jobs by 2014.
The Bureau reports that the “catalyst for this industry’s growth will be increases in the demand for temporary staffing services, as flexible work arrangements and schedules continue to proliferate and businesses make their staffing patterns more responsive to market changes.”
Staffing is one of the fastest growing industries in the U.S. The Bureau offers data showing that the industrial staffing sector employs more than 35% of all temporary and contract employees - making it the largest employer of the staffing sectors.
