Our mission is to always be AtWork for you — our franchisees. We provide nothing but the best technology, strategic advice, and support to every owner.
Formed in 1986 in Knoxville, Tennessee, by John Hall, AtWork first began franchising in 1992. Starting with 11 offices in East Tennessee, Hall soon realized how easy his franchise model was to expand. We now have over 90 offices across the nation, grown from his initial business.
Over the past 30 years, we have expanded our corporate team, perfected our business model, and built robust training and support services. These efforts fulfill our mission by helping franchisees open their businesses and work toward goals more efficiently.
If you are interested in starting your own AtWork office, reach out to discover what our team can do for you.
AtWork pairs deep staffing and franchising knowledge with compassionate, people-focused service. After signing a new franchise agreement, you will gain industry-leading franchise training and support to get your office up and running in about 90 days.
You will never feel alone leading up to the launch of your new business. Our team will prepare yours with an intensive two-day owner’s launch camp, a week of staff training at our corporate headquarters, and a week of hands-on field training at your office.
Our awards from trusted national sources like ClearlyRated, Staffing Industry Analysts, and Franchise Business Review show a clear track record of excellence.
After you launch your new business, the corporate support continues throughout your franchising journey.
Ongoing franchise owner support from AtWork includes:
Payroll funding and processing alone would cost as much as 15.5% of gross revenues for an independent staffing agency. Our franchisees receive all the above services and more for just 7% for royalties and .5% for marketing.
Now is a phenomenal time to get involved in the staffing business. The temporary staffing industry is reaching higher-than-ever demand as employers seek qualified people from a limited pool of unemployed Americans. In fact, the global staffing market’s value is expected to reach $568B by 2028.
Stable industry growth means you can expect the demand for people to remain high, providing a dependable revenue stream with high future earning potential. Tap into AtWork’s unique edge in the staffing industry: the only major staffing franchise to make their owners eligible for Work Opportunity Tax Credits (WOTC), combined with a low entry point and a franchise concept primed for expansion.
