Toughest part of managing blue collar workers? Getting them to show up. ⚡ New feature release #4: Attendance tests If you've never managed blue collar workers, you might be shocked to find out that the biggest challenge is just getting workers to show up on time! Workers no-show to interviews. Workers no-show for the first day. Workers show up for the first day and then don't show up for the second day. To combat the reliability epidemic, we launched an attendance test as part of the worker account set up process. It goes like this: 1. An applicant must schedule a 2 minute intro video for one of the slots the following day 2. They are given a 30 minute window to record that 2 minute video 3. If they miss the window, they cannot retry for 6 months 4. The app does not remind or notify them, they are expected to set their own reminders. A whopping 70% of applicants fail to record within the 30 minute window! 🤯 🤯 The purpose of this attendance test is to simulate showing up for a scheduled interview or first shift, and identify reliable candidates. Since implementing this, our no-show, late-show, and last-minute cancellation rates have dramatically decreased. If you're flooded with applicants but can't figure out which ones are reliable, sign up today at AirworkHQ.com. #manufacturing #warehousing #construction #eventstaff #retailrecruitment #staffing #bluecollar #technology #hrtech #startup #canadajobs #usajobs

Great to be a part of An Audience with Tom Aikens yesterday, talking about what’s in store for our industry in 2024. While our industry has worked hard to bounce back from the pandemic, staffing shortages remain a huge challenge. One of the best things about working in hospitality is that you can join at any stage of life - something which we have seen in evidence at The Wolseley Hospitality Group. As an industry we should be considering this when we are faced with staffing challenges - how can we encourage a broader demographic entering the hospitality industry? At TWHG 83% of employees are aged between 22-50 with over 50s making up 12% of employees. We are really proud to have such a broad age range working with us. Building this diverse talent pool is key is developing an inclusive and engaged workforce. #TWHG #Hospitality #Careers

Yesterday we met with our friends at Invicta to discuss ramp up and peak plans for 2024, working in a collaborative and cohesive partnership to deliver an efficient and successful supply of labour.. For me this demonstrates that competitors are not always in competition with each other and that there are benefits from having positive and trusted partnerships with competitors, especially for workers and the end user. Westfalia Fruit moved to this arrangement last year, by bringing together two providers who respect, trust and value each others contribution to achieve a shared common goal. Albeit multi, shared or dual supply arrangements can be perceived to de-risk a labour supply, they can often be disruptive, distracting and counterintuitive to a full and effective supply of labour. Having two providers that meet proactively to discuss the supply, the service, compliance, and best practise, as well as a cooperative approach to covering gaps that occur, not only protects the supply from risk, it creates a uniformed standard across the entire supply, bringing harmony to the workforce and all those stakeholders using it. With the cost of labour due to increase in the next few weeks, is it time for a rethink, there are many solutions out there, so do you have the right one for you? #therecruitmentgroup #poweredbypeople #fmcg #fmcgdivision #peterborough #spalding #boston #chatteris #holbeach #banbury #birmingham #abingdon #nottingham #mansfield #loughborough #rugby #leicester #hull #stockport #rotherham #Oxford #witney #lincolnshire #recruitment #cambridgeshire #westfalia #invicta #partnership #teamwork #labourprovider

One of Manpower UK great leaders Petra Tagg, had a great time discussing the latest market trends with Ian King earlier this week. If you missed it, you can catch up on the conversation here (around the 12-minute mark): https://lnkd.in/eDjjf6Rq According to recent research, small to medium-sized organizations are taking a different approach than larger ones. About 39% of them are investing in future skills and talent to grow, while larger organiations are slowing down and focusing on backfilling their outstanding vacancies. It's interesting to see how different organisations are adapting to the current market conditions.
