Why do commercial and industrial contractors include KODIAK on the shortlist of construction staffing providers?

Leading AEC, MEP, and heavy industrial contractors consistently report that KODIAK’s craft professionals are among the best-skilled trades on the job site. By focusing on recruiting and retaining skilled craft employees, the company has improved the skill level of their industrial traveler workforce over the past five years. Many of their leaders and recruiters have previous experience working at other staffing firms nationwide. They observed that those companies fail to retain their crafts and clients because they prioritize sales over recruitment and employee satisfaction.

For KODIAK, the focus is not about putting as many workers on a job site as possible, but rather mobilizing the safest, most skilled, productive, and reliable tradespeople for short-or long-term projects. Their emphasis on the quality of their workforce has led to an increase in sales.

KODIAK provides unparalleled support to its craft professionals through a “Total Employee Care” program.

KODIAK places a strong emphasis on investing in and providing excellent care for their construction staffing recruiters. They make serious investments in recruiting talent and advanced technology to onboard the best craft professionals, resulting in tremendous employer loyalty from their traveling craft workers. These workers appreciate the consistent work on some of the nation’s most notable and best-paying industrial construction projects, as well as the unmatched support they receive from their KODIAK recruiters. This level of support is particularly valuable for travelers who need immediate assistance with scheduling, housing, pay, and safety while away from home.

KODIAK recruiters have an average of 6 years of construction-recruiting experience, making them knowledgeable about specific trades and project types. This ensures that their contractor clients receive both local and traveling craftspeople who are well-prepared to perform specific tasks needed on the project.
