What:
PeopleReady, one of the nation’s largest industrial staffing
providers, announced today that is looking for 2,000 people to work
in the Hurricane Harvey recovery effort. Job seekers can sign
up at any of PeopleReady’s 11 branches in the area. They can also
sign up at the PeopleReady mobile unit that arrived in Houston last
night. The mobile unit will be visiting emergency shelters and
hard-hit areas to speak directly with people looking for work.
How:
Once job seekers have applied for work, they can use a mobile
app to find and accept jobs.
Who:
PeopleReady President Sean Ebner is in Houston and is available
to discuss the jobs that need to be filled and how businesses
can partner with PeopleReady to get the workers they need.
Ebner can provide context on this recovery operation compared with
others the company has aided including Hurricane Katrina and Super
Storm Sandy. Available with Ebner are Market Manager Moises Solis,
Director of Construction John Chism, and Regional Vice President
Smith Williams.
Where/When:
PeopleReady President Sean Ebner will be at the PeopleReady
branch at 1620 Gessner Drive from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. CT, then at the
mobile unit until 1 p.m. Call him directly at (214) 604-3918 for
current location. The mobile unit will be at various locations to
make it easier for people to sign up for work. Once
registered, workers can use PeopleReady’s JobStack mobile app to
search for jobs without having to go to a branch office.
Background: The company expects to put more than 2,000
people to work toward the area’s recovery. In addition to
rebuilding the community, these jobs are a valuable option for
residents who have been displaced from their work due to the storm
and floods. The work will mostly involve removal of debris and
damaged materials, as well as construction activity during
rebuilding. Businesses can also contact PeopleReady for assistance
in restoring and reopening their facilities.
