Staffing a warehouse can be a huge task. First, you have to do all of the regular duties associated with staffing any large business (like managing schedules and job responsibilities). Meanwhile, you also have to deal with frequent changes in labour demand due to the season or consumer behavior. Then there is the fact that many warehouses are located pretty far away from urban centers, which means you have a smaller pool of workers to appeal to.

Temporary warehouse staff are a great resource that you should use. Let’s take a look at why you should consider hiring temporary workers in your warehouse.
1. Fill Positions Quickly
Do you need to fill your open warehouse positions quickly? Temporary workers are a great way to fill those openings fast. There are plenty of job seekers who want full time work and are willing to take a temporary position until they find something permanent. And there are also people who are only looking for temporary work right now. When you add these two groups together, you have a much larger candidate pool available than if you’re only hiring permanent workers.
2. Save Money on Overtime
If you’re currently paying out a lot of overtime hours because you need your current workers to cover extra shifts, why not bring temporary workers on board?
These team members can be paid a traditional hourly wage, rather than the premium overtime salaries you have been covering. You’ll cover more hours without spending so much on labour costs.
3. You Don't Have to Do the Hiring Yourself
Staffing agencies can certainly help match permanent or temporary workers with companies that are hiring. However, they are especially popular with businesses (including warehouses) who need to hire temporary employees.
That’s because staffing agencies can quickly and efficiently process numerous applications. Instead of spending your time trying to find and onboard temporary employees, let a staffing agency help!
