If staffing firms are searching for greater efficiency, spending countless hours chasing time cards and manually entering data each week won’t help.

In my numerous conversations with staffing firms across North America, I am continuously amazed at how many firms still follow a manual process. Manual data entry promotes a higher risk of error. This risk is increased if the…
