The tradesmen and tradeswomen we send to job sites every day are the heart of PeopleReady Skilled Trades. Their jobs aren’t always easy and are often performed in difficult working conditions. But, it’s these hard-working men and women who we rely on every day to help build our country.

Recruiting and retaining talented tradespeople and skilled laborers is the most critical business challenge facing the construction industry. And, to us, showing appreciation and respect in support of their hard work is essential.

So, to show our respect for the hard work and dedication of our tradespeople, we created Respect the Craft™, a recognition program that rewards more than 45 workers each month.

How are individuals selected?

Throughout the month, they would have exhibited one or more of the following:

• Had a standout moment going above and beyond
• Took initiative by helping another teammate on the job site
• Showcased our culture principles
• Demonstrated outstanding safety practices
• Never missed a shift or worked the most hours
