The National Staffing Employee of the Year is an honoree whose story best captures the staffing industry’s key messages—jobs, flexibility, bridge, choice, and training. Give your stellar temporary or contract employee the chance to be the 2013 National Staffing Employee of the Year by nominating him or her for the prestigious distinction.

You can learn about the 2012 honoree, Chris Hoover, by reading the January–February issue of Staffing Success. National Staffing Employee of the Year is sponsored by First Staff Benefits, an ASA corporate partner.

The Care Awards recognize CSR best practices among ASA member companies and affiliated chapters. A panel of corporate social responsibility experts will review entries and select the winners.

The 2012 Staffing VOICE Award competition, sponsored by ASA corporate partner CareerBuilder, recognizes standout communications efforts in 16 categories that demonstrate vision, originality, innovation, creativity, and effectiveness (VOICE).
