What is alternative staffing?

Alternative staffing refers to workforce solutions that hire individuals who may face barriers to traditional employment, such as those with limited work experience, gaps in employment, or involvement with the justice system. Alternative staffing agencies connect these job seekers with employers, often providing supportive services like job coaching and training. This approach helps companies fill open positions while giving candidates valuable work opportunities and experience. Alternative staffing can be a valuable tool for both social impact and meeting organizational hiring needs.
