OSHA & Temporary Workers

Why Should You Attend:

Each day thousands of people are working in temporary help positions through-out the nation, and the demand is continuing to increase. Currently, the Bureau of Labor Statics (BLS) reports for 2014 the estimates are well above 2 Million people that are working in temporary help positions in the United States.

Many of the skills that temporary workers have or are required to have today didn’t exist in years past. The image of temporary workers only doing repetitive or low-skilled task no longer applies in today’s marketplace. Temporary workers are now assigned to positions that encompass a much broader range of industries.
