Hot Off the Presses
Instawork, the leading platform in connecting businesses with skilled hourly workers, has announced an expansion of its services to include long-term staffing. This announcement comes at a critical time when businesses are looking for a way to handle fluctuations in consumer demand. Traditional staffing agencies have shown poor retention rates for hourly workers beyond 30 days, putting additional pressure on businesses looking for long-term dependability. Instawork’s survey of its network of hourly workers (Pros) found that 70% can commit long-term to businesses. These workers are eager for longer term work schedules but need to be successfully matched with businesses also looking for their skills, experience, and commitment. Instawork's AI-powered technology is at the forefront of this initiative, vetting workers to ensure a match for businesses' long-term needs. The intelligent platform considers a myriad of factors, including worker skills, experience, and even their proximity to the business location and methods of transportation. The result? A remarkable doubling of worker retention rates after 30 days, showcasing the effectiveness of Instawork's quality and reliability-focused model. This strategic move by Instawork is backed by a recent Series D fundraise and is further validated by their recognition in the top 10% of Inc. 5000's fastest-growing private companies, Forbes' Next Billion Dollar Startup list, and accolades such as the 2022 ACE Award for "Best Innovation" and Business Insider's "Best Business Apps."
