10/02/2009 — NJSA White Paper on Crew Leaders

Over the past few months, there has been a significant increase in publicity surrounding organizations that were purported to be “staffing firms” or “temporary labor firms” when in fact they were not. The NJSA Board and Legislative Committee felt a clarification was needed to help educate the public and our elected officials on the difference between our members and the businesses that are registered as “Crew Leaders” or in some cases, not registered at all.

To help clarify the issue and provide a better understanding of the organizations that NJSA represents, a brief White Paper on this issue is available for you to download.
