Three Tips for Hiring The Best Day Laborers

It can be challenging to find reliable workers in all fields, and day labor, in particular, comes with its own risks and pitfalls. But sometimes it is necessary and beneficial to hire workers on a temporary basis, so we’re here to help you with some tips about how to find and hire the best skilled workers.

Screen Candidates Thoroughly

The screening process is the most important part of hiring because it’s the time when you get to ask questions that highlight people who’d be a good fit as well as those you should pass on. Consider the specific needs of your project and industry. How much experience do you want your workers to have in their specific field? Do they need to have niche skills related to your project? Do they need to do any heavy lifting or physically demanding work? These are all determinations you should make so you can ask appropriate questions during the screening process.

Be Clear in Your Requirements

In your Gig description, and throughout the screening process, it’s best to be clear and direct. You don’t want to get to the offer stage of the hiring process and find out that your desired candidate does not have the required availability for the gig! Let candidates know the following information upfront:

  • Whether the day laborer position will one-time or ongoing
  • The types of services or labor you require
  • Hourly rates and expected wages for the position (You can set this as you’re creating your free Shift Gig post)
  • Hours and time commitment for the role, especially if this includes shift work or non-standard hours

Understand Local and Federal Legal Requirements for Day Laborers

Make sure you understand the rights of your workers before you decide to hire skilled labor on a temporary basis. There may be requirements around rest breaks, wages, and even benefits if you decide to keep any temporary workers on your team for an extended period of time.

We hope these tips (and the GigSmart Get Workers platform) help you find the best day laborers for your job.
