Tell us how many skilled workers you need and what trade
Our Heritage, Purpose and Founding Goals
In 1992, the face of construction labor support was the conventional “temporary labor staffing solution.” But that face was about to change.
A commercial electrical contractor in Northeast Ohio, Joseph O. Wesley, had recognized first-hand the vast need for a new construction staffing paradigm: one in which a contingent construction labor force of superior quality could supplement a contractor’s core workforce in order to level out workload peaks and valleys, and better match workload to workers. To achieve it, Mr. Wesley founded Tradesmen International. More than three decades later, the company has assembled what is recognized as North America’s premier construction workforce, providing thousands of high-caliber, safety-minded craftworkers to businesses across the nation.
Our Purpose
Tradesmen’s purpose is to bring pride, passion and professionalism to skilled trades.
Our Founding Goals
Tradesmen International was established in 1992 and quickly matured in the construction market by committing to three distinct goals:
- Improve clients’ overall construction labor productivity while efficiently servicing their contingent construction labor needs
- Provide America’s skilled craftworkers reliable work, fair compensation and benefits, opportunities for skill and career growth, as well as safer overall working conditions
- Help maintain and elevate the high levels of pride and craftsmanship that are the traditional hallmarks of the skilled construction trades
