In today’s economic landscape, uncertainty is the norm. Whether driven by tariffs, supply chain disruptions, or geopolitical instability, business leaders are understandably hesitant to make long-term workforce commitments, even when sales are strong and forecasts are promising.
At Impact Workforce Solutions, we offer a strategic approach to workforce building that allows you to grow without locking yourself into inflexible models.
Watch the video below to hear how a better workforce strategy can help you scale confidently in uncertain times.
You don’t have to choose between uncertainty and stagnation
In volatile markets, traditional thinking says you either commit to full-time hiring or fall back on temp staffing. But both options come with risks:
- Full-time hiring during uncertain periods increases long-term financial exposure.
- Traditional temp staffing often lacks alignment, commitment, and long-term value.
If you’re dealing with strong sales but hesitant to hire due to market unpredictability, there’s a third path forward — and Impact can help you build it.
A more strategic model for contingent workforce planning
Impact’s Core2 model bridges the gap between operational flexibility and workforce stability. Here’s how it works:
- Full-time outcomes without full-time risk: We hire employees on our W-2, providing them with full-time jobs, benefits, and growth pathways while they work exclusively for your business and stay aligned with your goals and processes.
- A smoother transition to direct hire: When the timing is right, these dedicated team members can transition seamlessly into your full-time workforce. We don’t just allow it — we encourage it.
- Tailored to your business cycle: Whether your operations are steady year-round or highly seasonal, we adapt our approach to your forecast, helping you maintain the right labor mix without overcommitting.
“You don’t always have to hire 100% full-time employees to get the outcomes you want.”
Workforce confidence in a time of hesitation
If you’re trying to balance growth with caution, you’re in good company. Many organizations are sitting on strong business pipelines but delaying hiring decisions due to macro-level uncertainty. Impact helps convert that hesitation into action through:
Current-state workforce assessments
Forecast-informed strategic planning
Scalable, culture-aligned workforce design
Flexible transition strategies to full-time employment when the time is right
You don’t have to choose between inaction and overextension. You can scale with intention — and with a partner that supports both your immediate needs and long-term goals.
Let’s map out your workforce strategy together
You may not be ready to make full-time hires. That doesn’t mean you should pause growth. With the right contingent workforce model, you can move forward with confidence — and build a team that’s ready to grow with you.
