(Denver, CO)---10 til 2, a Denver-based staffing firm specializing in part-time long-term placement, will join staffing companies across the country in celebrating National Staffing Employee Week from September 15th through 21st. National Staffing Employee Week was established by the American Staffing Association (ASA) to pay tribute to the 2.96 million Americans who are employed by staffing firms every day.

Businesses, according to ASA, tap staffing companies for quality talent in virtually all occupational sectors, from call center service representatives to skilled tradesmen to attorneys. ASA also reports that 79 percent of temporary and contract employees work full-time (35 hours or more per week), virtually the same as the rest of the work force.

“National Staffing Employee Week is a salute to the important and talented contract employees who actively contribute to the growth and maintenance of our economy,” said Liz Norwood, 10 til 2’s chief marketing officer and one of the company’s four founders. According to Norwood, 10 til 2 will spend the entire week honoring its staff, its clients and all of its candidates who see the win-win of staffing services.

For those who are seeking reentering the work force, or looking for something new, contract employment offers many benefits:



Jobs: The staffing industry matches millions of people to millions of jobs every day.
Flexibility: Employees can choose when, where, and how they want to work. Companies can get the skills they need to keep fully staffed during busy times.
Choice: Many people choose temporary and contract work as a preferred employment option. They can select their work schedules and choose among a variety of diverse and challenging assignments.


“We’re proud to be involved in an industry that provides so many benefits to employees, to businesses, and to America’s economy,” adds Norwood.
