Despite historically high unemployment rates, the labor shortage has proven remarkably resilient in the manufacturing sector. According to a new study by Deloitte and The Manufacturing Institute, U.S. manufacturers expect to have 2.1 million unfilled jobs by 2030.
The partnership provides a holistic, retention-based staffing approach to employers by combining Shiftboard’s workforce scheduling solutions with Randstad In-House Services (RIS), which offers unique onsite management solutions for high-volume contingent workforces.
“Today’s labor market is challenging and highly competitive, and many companies are experiencing reduced revenues when they temporarily shut down operations due to shortfalls in labor resources,” said Sterling Wilson, Shiftboard president and CEO. “To help address this persistent issue, our partnership with Randstad makes it easier for clients to integrate, schedule, and manage their entire workforces, including full-time and contingent employees.”

Shiftboard and Randstad created the partnership to help companies address the persistent labor shortages typical in manufacturing, logistics, distribution, transportation, and healthcare. The companies will offer the scheduling solution to Randstad clients as Relevate Schedule.
The joint initiative helps address a company’s labor shortage by leveraging Randstad’s onsite management capabilities and Shiftboard’s intelligent scheduling solutions to enhance company visibility into worker profiles, credentials, and schedules for improved alignment. The offering is designed specifically for high-volume contingent workforces of 50 or more workers.
“We are excited to partner with Shiftboard to provide this truly unique program for high-volume workforce operations needing a hands-on, value-added approach to contingent staffing,” said Greg Dyer, Group President of Randstad USA. “Through this offering, we help clients successfully identify, secure, and schedule the best-fit workers while avoiding downtime and the subsequent loss of revenue.”
