Why We Don’t Use Temporary Employment Agencies to Find Our Painters

Temporary employment agencies are popular among professional painting companies, including many around Jacksonville. These agencies provide an easy way to stock the company with short-term laborers who may help complete a task, often as quickly as possible. There are many risks associated with using painters from such agencies. For example, a painter from such an agency may not have been properly trained in how to use the specific paint for a certain project, which could lead to a poor paint job. Likewise, a painter may not have learned how to safely move or stabilize ladders, or how to properly operate the tools or machines needed for the job, which could result in injury to the painter or damage to the property. A painter who is provided from an agency for a single day or a single job may be less reliable and less motivated than a permanent employee who is recognized as part of a team. Temporary employment agencies and their day laborers may be a good fit for painting companies whose main concern is a bottom line, but at The Painting Craftsmen, we do business in a different way.
