Let’s Get Started
Full Speed Ahead
Experienced Professionals You Can Trust
In ports, terminals and shipyards across the nation, you’ll find our skilled marine tradespeople. They’re shipwrights and shipfitters, marine welders and electricians, pipefitters and firewatchers — and more. Each one is hired through a rigorous process to ensure we’re recruiting the best, most qualified tradespeople. When you partner with PeopleReady Skilled Trades, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that our marine workers will show up — onsite and on time.
We’ve developed our expertise in the marine industry since 2008: the year we dispatched our first set of skilled marine tradespeople to a shipbuilding project. We’re dedicated to connecting our shipbuilding and marine construction workers with jobs in the marine industry to ensure our customers have the quality workforce they need — whenever and wherever they need it.
Safety First
In every process, procedure and program we have in place, we demonstrate our commitment to safety. From our BeSafe program, which ensures our customers and tradespeople work safely across a project’s entire lifecycle, to OSHA 10 Maritime training and standard PPE for every tradesperson, to around-the-clock support for questions and emergencies, everything — and we do mean everything — is focused on safety first.
Full-Service Staffing Support
From marine welders to firewatchers, we have the skilled workers you need. We’ve got you covered whether you need a single tradesperson or an entire crew for your project. We only place screened and vetted W-2 employees with the tools, skills and experience to get your job done. And as a specialty division of PeopleReady, a TrueBlue company (NYSE: TBI), we have the financial support and rock-solid stability you need — and want — in a workforce partner.
