Controlling wages and managing staff in the hospitality industry can make you feel like a lion tamer in the circus. But a trusted staffing partner like LGC can take the wildness out of the process \u2013 no chair or whip required. Here are the top five ways we can help you tame the staffing beast.<\/p>\n

Level out wages<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Employment in the leisure and hospitality industry has roared back since its massive COVID-caused contraction in 2020. As the number of jobs has increased, wages for new hires<\/a> have climbed as well, going from a median of $11 per hour in 2021 to $15 per hour today. All this upward pressure on wages creates uncertainty for employers and complicates the hiring process.<\/p>\n

When employers use a staffing agency, they know up front what their costs will be. There\u2019s no uncertainty about wages, allowing for easier budgeting and cash flow management.<\/p>\n

Reduce recruiting costs<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Hiring employees isn\u2019t cheap \u2013 and the expenses start before workers ever join the payroll. According to the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM), in 2024 the average cost<\/a> of recruiting and hiring an employee was just under $4,700.<\/p>\n

When you let a staffing partner handle recruitment, they absorb those costs, not you. In addition, when you work with a staffing company like LGC that treats temporary staff as W-2 employees (not 1099 contract workers), they pick up the cost of payroll taxes, unemployment insurance, and workers compensation insurance.<\/p>\n

Simplify hiring and management<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Does the thought of going through a pile of applications, making calls, and trying to set up interviews bring on a stress response? It does for a lot of employers, but you can avoid it when you use a staffing agency.<\/p>\n

Your staffing partner will take care of all the recruitment tasks. Then you can talk with the top candidates and make your choices. And for contracts with large numbers of employees, a staffing partner can also help with training, uniform distribution, and other onboarding management issues.<\/p>\n

Decrease turnover<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Using temporary employees from a trusted partner helps reduce turnover in two ways:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Permanent workers are less likely to burn out when temporary workers help fill in staffing gaps during peak periods. Less overwork = happier employees.<\/li>\n
  • Using temp-to-hire arrangements allows employers to see how employees work out before hiring them permanently. This setup allows for better long-term hires with fewer quits and dismissals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Match staff levels to fluctuating needs<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    The hospitality industry has always had to deal with fluctuating staffing needs, on a daily, weekly, and seasonal basis. Employers often must choose between hiring too many permanent employees or risking being shorthanded during a busy period.<\/p>\n

    With reliable temporary staffing from LGC, you don\u2019t have to make that choice. You can match your hiring to your needs, without paying for staff that might sit idle.<\/p>\n

    Conclusion<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Putting together a staff that meets your needs doesn\u2019t have to be a three-ring circus. With a trusted staffing partner who understands the hospitality industry, you can bring on temporary staff, temp-to-hire employees, and even executive level hires without drama.
