Light Industrial Staffing

Light Industrial Staffing in Memphis, TN

Production lines do not tolerate gaps. We staff light manufacturing and assembly operations across the Memphis metro with associates screened for the pace, the safety requirements, and the shift pattern your plant runs.

Roles we place across the Memphis metro

  • Production and assembly associates
  • Machine operators and machine tenders
  • Packaging and labeling associates
  • Quality inspectors and sorters
  • Kitters and sub-assembly workers
  • Sanitation and line changeover crews
  • Shipping support and dock associates
  • Working leads and line supervisors

How we protect line uptime

In light manufacturing the cost of a bad placement is not the fee. It is the line running short, the rework, or the recordable. We build against that.

  • Safety orientation before dispatch. Every associate is briefed on PPE, lockout expectations, and reporting before they reach your floor.
  • Role-specific screening. Machine tending, repetitive assembly, and quality inspection each demand different aptitudes. We do not treat them as one pool.
  • Shift continuity. We staff crews, not individuals, so a program has depth rather than a single point of failure.
  • Attendance management. Confirmation the night before, confirmation at shift start, and a bench for call-outs.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as light industrial staffing?

Light industrial covers production, assembly, machine operation, packaging, quality inspection, warehouse, and material handling work. It is distinct from skilled trades and from heavy industrial roles that require licensure.

Can associates convert to our payroll?

Yes. Temp to hire is the most common model in light manufacturing. The associate works on our payroll for an agreed number of hours while you evaluate fit, then converts to your payroll with no conversion fee once those hours are met.

Do you provide safety orientation?

Yes. Every associate receives a general safety briefing before dispatch, and we coordinate with your EHS team on any site-specific training required before a first shift.

What is your service area?
