Construction workers, mechanics, electricians, and other blue-collar workers are often the silent backbone of a country's operations. Yet today, there is a persistent gap in the number of skilled workers in the market. According to the American Institute of Constructors, the construction industry in the US is short of half a million workers; the impact of which cascades through the construction workforce. Aiming to tackle this, Steve Worrell has built a model that's quietly reshaping how America's blue-collar workforce operates.
Worrell, founder of Elite Force Staffing, a blue-collar staffing company specializing in electricians and mechanical workers, has curated a model aimed at closing labor gaps in even the most remote parts of the country by rethinking what flexibility and mobility can mean for modern trades. As one of the largest staffing companies in the material handling sector, which manages the conveyor systems that drive today's e-commerce operations, Elite Force Staffing has contributed extensively toward building seamless operations. "We're helping construct the conveyors that make online retail possible, everything from fulfillment centers to advanced logistics hubs," Worrell says.
