Are the best warehouse jobs the ones that pay the most?
It depends.
Pay is important, but it’s not the only think to consider when looking for light industrial work. Perks should be a priority too.
In fact, overlooking them can be a costly mistake.
Here are 4 perks you should look for in your next warehouse job.
Health Insurance
Life is full of surprises. Unfortunately, that can include unexpected medical expenses.
Health insurance helps cover the costs potentially saving you thousands of dollars. Not all employers and staffing agencies offer health insurance, so make sure you ask about it when considering your next job.
If you’re considering working for Faire Labor, you should know that we offer associates health, dental and vision insurance.
Bonuses
Sign-on, performance and referral bonuses are great opportunities to earn additional income. Before you leap at the job with the highest hourly wage, check if there are bonuses available and ask about their earning potential.
As an example, Faire Labor’s referral rewards program is unlimited. Meaning associates earn money every time they make a qualified referral (And if you’re applying for warehouse jobs, we’re currently offering a sign-on bonus!).
PTO (Paid Time Off)
Everyone needs time away from work. PTO (Paid Time Off) is a bank of hours you can use to take time off when you need to. Not all light industrial staffing companies and employers offer PTO, so ask about the time off policy when considering your next job. Faire Labor associates enjoy the freedom and flexibility of PTO.
Employee Recognition Program
Everyone wants to be recognized and rewarded for their hard work. Find out if your employer offers an employee recognition program.
This says a lot about the culture of the company and how much they care about their employees. Plus, it might offer financial incentives. For instance, the Faire Labor Associate Spotlight Award shines light on our awesome Associates and adds $50 to their pay!
So when looking for warehouse or manufacturing jobs, make sure you pay attention to the perks – not just the hourly pay.
