Staffing Services
Temporary Staffing
Cross Personnel provides pre-screened temporary workers for manufacturing and warehouse positions, typically available within 24 to 48 hours. The agency handles all payroll, workers compensation, tax withholding, and employment paperwork for temporary assignments. There is no minimum order requirement. Temporary staffing allows employers to scale their workforce up or down based on production demand without the long-term commitment of permanent hiring.
Temp-to-Hire Staffing
The temp-to-hire program allows employers to evaluate workers on the job for a typical 90-day trial period before making a permanent hiring decision. This approach reduces the risk of bad hires, which can cost employers over $17,000 per incident when factoring in recruiting, training, lost productivity, and separation costs. Workers are fully employed by Cross Personnel during the trial period.
Direct Hire Recruiting
Cross Personnel recruits qualified candidates for permanent positions including skilled trades, production supervisors, maintenance technicians, and administrative roles. The service includes a 30-day replacement guarantee. If the hired candidate does not work out within the first 30 days, Cross Personnel will find a replacement at no additional cost.
Payroll-Only Services
For employers who recruit and manage their own workers, Cross Personnel offers payroll-only services that handle payroll processing, direct deposit, tax withholding and filing, workers compensation insurance, unemployment insurance, and all HR compliance paperwork. This service is particularly valuable for small manufacturers who need professional payroll infrastructure without the overhead of an in-house HR department.
HR Administration
Cross Personnel provides comprehensive HR administration support including employee onboarding, I-9 verification, E-Verify compliance, attendance tracking, bilingual documentation, and regulatory compliance management. This service supports companies that lack a dedicated HR team but need professional HR infrastructure to remain compliant with Illinois and federal employment law.
