Transitional Employment

Our program can provide employers with temporary staffing to meet their changing needs. The Veterans Industries "temp to hire" transitional work program allows a company to pre-screen veterans, observing them in action before making a decision regarding competitive employment. Our professional staff will make site visits to provide assistance to the employer and to insure that their needs are being met. Lower your business costs while meeting your production/labor needs.
