About the Role:

What You'll Do:

• Manage temp staffing operations, including agency relationships, onboarding and offboarding, and hours submission.
• Own the new hire experience end to end — facilitate orientation, ensure every system and document is ready before Day 1, and run structured 15/45/90-day check-ins that surface trends and share findings with key leaders.
• Manage attendance tracking, timecard edits, call-off documentation, and policy enforcement consistently, accurately, and with care.

• Provide first-response on workers' comp claims and escalate complex situations to the Sr. HR Manager with good judgment and documentation.
• Pull completion and rating reports, keep BDC leadership informed on review timelines, and raise flags before deadlines slip.
• Coordinate monthly safety topics, annual training, and LMS compliance reporting to keep the BDC population current and documentation airtight.
• Produce and distribute regular HR reports — headcount, rosters, terminations, OSHA, perfect attendance, labor — and communicate what the numbers mean clearly.
• Run recognition programs, coordinate engagement initiatives, execute BDC events, and conduct exit interviews that translate findings into actionable patterns.
