Our Mission: Make Industrial Staffing Refreshing
We're transforming the staffing industry with transparency, efficiency, and a commitment to treating workers and employers with respect.
We're transforming the staffing industry with transparency, efficiency, and a commitment to treating workers and employers with respect.
Founded in 2015 by industry veterans frustrated with the status quo, Staffing Lemonade was born from a simple idea: staffing shouldn't be bitter.
After decades of experience on both sides of industrial staffing - as employers and as agency recruiters - our founders saw how broken the system was. Workers were treated as disposable, employers were overcharged for mediocre service, and nobody was happy.
We set out to change that, bringing transparency, fairness, and efficiency to industrial staffing. Today, we're proud to serve hundreds of companies and thousands of workers across North America.
These principles guide everything we do
We treat every worker with dignity, pay fair wages, and ensure safe working conditions. Industrial workers are the backbone of our economy and deserve respect.
No hidden fees or fine print. We're upfront about costs, pay rates, and what you can expect from our service.
We leverage technology and industry expertise to deliver the right workers faster than traditional staffing agencies.
We'd rather send you five perfect candidates than fifty mediocre ones. Our rigorous screening ensures quality matches.
We constantly refine our processes based on feedback from workers and employers to deliver better results.
We invest in workforce development programs and partnerships with local organizations to strengthen the communities we serve.
