Impacted by Tariffs? Mitigate the Costs With Affordable, Reliable Talent

No matter where you stand on politics, your business is likely at least somewhat impacted by President Trump’s tariffs or the counter-tariffs from other countries’ leaders. Many companies in the warehouse and construction industries are facing challenges as prices rise on key supplies sourced from abroad.

At LG Resources, we understand how tariffs are impacting warehouse and construction businesses right now. We can help your business navigate labor costs at this challenging time and get you affordable, reliable, and high-performing talent to mitigate the additional costs you may be incurring.

1. Flexibility to Deal With Shifting Demand

Even if tariffs aren’t directly impacting your business, they may be impacting your clients and making them more reluctant to spend on your services. As the tariff situation continues to change, you may experience fluctuating demand.

A staffing agency like LG Resources gives you the flexibility to scale your workforce up or down as needed. You don’t need to commit to long-term employment contracts when you’re not sure how many people you can employ down the road. With our just-in-time staffing services, you can get extra labor only when it’s actually needed.

2. Reduced Recruiting and Hiring Costs

From putting together job postings and screening resumes to doing interviews and reference checks, the hiring process takes a lot of time and resources. LG Resources already has a pipeline of pre-vetted candidates, which means we can dramatically reduce the time and cost of filling your open positions.

You don’t need to spend time advertising job openings, invest in recruiting tools, or dedicate internal hours to the candidate hunt. Our team will take care of those tasks and quickly present you with qualified, ready-to-work candidates.

3. Lower Employee Turnover 

Employee turnover is often one of the most expensive problems businesses face. Every time you lose an employee, you incur a lot of direct and indirect costs, like lost productivity, re-recruiting, time spent onboarding replacements, and training expenses.

LG Resources mitigates these costs in several ways. When you work with us to quickly bring in temporary staff, you keep existing employees from having to take on higher absence-related workloads that would lead to burnout and further turnover. We’re also experts at matching candidates to both job requirements and company culture, which increases the likelihood of successful placements. You can try out new employees on a temp-to-hire basis to further reduce the risk of a bad hire.

4. Savings on Overhead Expenses 

Hiring a new employee usually comes with a ton of expenses beyond their salary. Benefits, payroll taxes, workers’ compensation, training, and other regulatory requirements can quickly add up to a lot of time and spending. If you hire temp staff through LG Resources, you won’t need to worry about those costs. 

We take care of temporary employees’ benefits and other overhead expenses. With LG Resources at your side, you won’t have to deal with all that administrative work until and unless you want to bring them on as permanent employees. 

This arrangement lightens your business’s administrative and financial load, especially for short-term or project-based needs. You’ll stay in compliance with labor laws and avoid potential penalties.

5. Access to Specialized Talent As You Shift Gears

Depending on how tariffs are impacting your business and its existing partnerships, you might be thinking about shifting gears into new arrangements, product lines, or services. If that’s the case, you will likely want access to specialized talent during your transition.

LG Resources can help you find the specialized talent you need. We recruit high-performing professionals in a wide range of fields, from human resources and management to technology and industrial roles. Whether you need a short-term consultant or an expert to fill a new long-term role, we’ll get you the right candidate for your company culture and skill requirements.
