TrueBlue, a leading provider of specialized workforce solutions, released its 2025 Temporary Workforce Report from its flagship brand PeopleReady on September 8, 2025. Based on responses from over 8,000 workers nationwide, the report identifies three key drivers for attracting and retaining temporary workers: a mobile-enabled platform, flexibility with stability, and trusted relationships with local support. These insights reshape how employers approach the multigenerational temporary workforce in a competitive labor market.
The report, based on a survey conducted by PeopleReady, highlights evolving workforce dynamics:
“Businesses can’t build reliable workforces without understanding the people behind them,” said Kristy Willis, President of PeopleReady. “This report challenges stereotypes: workers seek primary income, and mobile access matters across all generations.”
PeopleReady’s JobStack app and nationwide branch network address these needs, offering a fast, reliable staffing experience. The app connects employers with talent on-demand, while local branches provide personalized support, aligning with the report’s emphasis on trust and accessibility. TrueBlue’s stock price, at $5.835 USD as of September 8, 2025, reflects market confidence amid these strategic advancements (see finance card above).
The temporary staffing industry is projected to grow to 3.2 million jobs by 2025, outpacing overall U.S. job growth (TrueBlue and Emsi study). TrueBlue’s focus on mobile platforms like JobStack, which 83% of workers demand, positions it to lead in this $150 billion market.
