The Challenge of Worker Numbers


Hiring the Right People isn’t easy

Janitorial services is a labor-intensive industry. The revenues are derived from the hands-on work done by the owner and his or her crew of employees. Many entrepreneurs in this line of work will start out doing things by themselves but they soon discover that more than one set of hands is needed. The business owner has to start hiring more people and that can be a very risky job.
