Lofton Staffing Wins Inavero's 2014 Best of Staffing Award

Mar 24, 2014


Baton Rouge, March 6, 2014:  Lofton Staffing Services announced today that it has been named as one of Inavero’s 2014 Best of Staffing® Award winners.  Presented in partnership with CareerBuilder, the fifth annual Best of Staffing Award provides the only statistical valid, objective, service quality benchmarks in the industry, revealing which staffing agencies are delivering the highest satisfaction levels to their clients and employees for whom they find jobs.   Yet again, this year’s award outcome highlights a growing divide among the industry’s leaders and laggards, and identifies Lofton Staffing Services as one of the best staffing agencies for companies to call when they are looking to hire temporary or permanent employees.  Less than 2% of North American staffing firms receive the Best of Staffing Award for service excellence.   

 "Lofton has always strived to be more than a staffing company, but a true partner to our clients in ensuring quality temporary or permanent personnel to their organizations.  According to the survey results, Lofton Staffing received a satisfaction ranking of 9 or 10 out of 10 from 79% of our clients, over double the industry average of 35% for staffing and recruiting agencies,”  said Bart Lofton, Co-President. "We are proud and honored to be recognized for our outstanding service to our clients and employees in this way.”

"The staffing industry is helping organizations bridge the skills gap and add jobs today more than at any other point in U.S. history,” said Inavero Founder and CEO, Eric Gregg. "Between the well documented skills gaps and economic uncertainty, partnering with a top staffing agency is more important now than ever. The 2014 Best of Staffing Award was earned by fewer than 2% of the more than 12,000 staffing firms in the U.S. and Canada.  In an era of scarce qualified talent, hard to fill positions, and ever-increasing expectations these firms have proven they have what it takes to deliver exceptional service to both clients and job candidates. We're proud of the accomplishments of our 2014 award recipients."
