Heat Kills
Heat illness includes heat cramps, fainting, heat exhaustion, and
heat stroke.
Workers have died or suffered serious health problems from these
conditions.
Heat illness can be prevented. Know the symptoms of heat
illness. Watch for symptoms in yourself and coworkers. If your
employee’s feel any of these symptoms have them report to their
supervisor immediately because they may need medical help. Have your
employee’s know who to talk to and how to get help before you start
each day.
Early symptoms include:
- Fatigue
- Heavy Sweating
- Headache
- Cramps
- Dizziness
- High pulse rate
- Nausea/vomiting
Life-threatening symptoms include:
- High body temperature
- Red, hot, dry skin
- Confusion
- Fainting
Stay Alert to the Weather
During a heat wave, you are at greater risk of getting sick. You
need to watch yourself and employees more closely, and may need to
drink more water, take more breaks, and use other measures.
Drink Enough Cool, Fresh Water
Drink at least one 8-ounce cup every 15 minutes during your work
shift. Do not wait until you are thirsty to drink water. Avoid
coffee, choose water over soft drinks.
Take rest breaks in the shade to cool down.
Wear the Proper Clothing
Loose fitting, lightweight cotton clothes, a wide-brimmed hat or
cap, and a bandana.

Employees are the backbone of any company. Often the hiring
process is rushed resulting in a less than perfect workforce. Even
so when the time comes to hire a new employee many smart business
people believe they are saving time and money by doing it
themselves. Statistics show that in large cities, businesses, both
large and small, use staffing firms far more often than small town
businesses. Small town business people sometimes misunderstand about
how staffing firms operate and what we do to save our clients time
and money.
Contrary to what some may believe, staffing agencies are an asset
to companies and jobseekers. People from all professions and walks
of life come in and apply for positions every day. We offer these
people training and assistance in the job search. When they become
our employees, we are there to back them up and give them any help
they need. Benefits are available and we do everything we can to
assure job security and personal well-being. Outstanding agencies,
such Premier Staffing, attract some of the very best employees from
many professions all around the Central Valley.
When it is time to search for a new employee, consider the
frequently painful process. First you must define the position,
establish the requirements, and begin the search. This can involve
the cost of advertising, taking telephone calls and wading through
resumes of unqualified people then spending valuable time sitting
through pointless interviews
Premier Staffing will do the work and send only qualified people
who meet your requirements so you can interview good candidates and
make a selection quickly and get on with the business of running
your business. We handle all payroll issues including submission of
State and Federal taxes, unemployment issues as well as workers
compensation. We keep abreast of revisions in State and Federal
labor laws and assure compliance.
 Premier Staffing is proud to be celebrating 32 years of excellence in the staffing industry, serving the
Central Valley.
We are a full-service, locally owned and operated company offering direct hire, temporary-to-hire and temporary
placement service. We recruit highly qualified candidates to fill positions in Accounting, Administrative, Clerical,
Technical, Light Industrial, and General Labor.
All Job seekers are subjected to a thorough, structured, in-depth interview conducted by highly trained and
experienced staffing specialists able to identify skill levels and work attitudes before being assigned to our
clients. We can also provide specialized testing, including Microsoft Office Suite and drug testing, when required.
We are proud to offer our temporary employees the opportunity to enroll in a medical insurance program, if
they should chose to do so. And now, Premier Staffing is offering the opportunity to participate in a
401K plan. Our employees are very important to us.
 Call
us for details the next time you need direct hire, temporary-to-hire, or temporary assistance.
