The Challenge:
Inconsistent Headcount
Is your production lagging because of inconsistent headcount? Silgan Dispensing, a leading manufacturer in Thomaston, CT, faced the same issue.
When production demands spiked or absenteeism occurred they found themselves scrambling to fill shifts, directly impacting their bottom line.
The Solution:
Flexible Staffing Solution
MyWorkChoice brought a modern approach to staffing by recruiting full-time workers who want flexibility in their shift schedules.
And here’s the kicker – it didn’t create operational chaos for Silgan Dispensing. Instead, we achieved industry-high fill rates, tenure, and retention.
High Retention:
Power of Flexibility
It’s not just about filling shifts; we retain quality workers that outlast typical temp hires. Flexibility has improved tenure, morale, and productivity at Silgan Dispensing’s facility.
