Forklift Operator Staffing FAQ

Do your forklift operators come certified?

Many do. We confirm each operator's certification status and equipment experience during screening. OSHA requires employers to evaluate operators on their own site and equipment, so we coordinate that with you.

Can you staff forklift operators for multiple shifts?

Yes. We recruit for first, second, third and weekend shifts and build the plan around your shift patterns and headcount by week.

Can temporary operators convert to permanent?

Yes. Temp-to-hire lets you evaluate operators on the job before offering a permanent role.
