Holiday Readiness: Why Warehouses Need to Hire Now

As the holiday season approaches, warehouses face their busiest time of year. From e-commerce surges to retail distribution, demand for labor rises quickly—and waiting until November to hire can leave operations struggling. The smartest move is to prepare now.

1. Hire Early and Target Transferable Skills

Workers from manufacturing, food service, or general labor often bring skills that adapt well to warehouse roles. Hiring early ensures enough time for training and safety preparation before peak demand.

2. Partner with Staffing Agencies

Staffing agencies like Mesibriz simplify the process by handling onboarding, payroll, timekeeping, and training. This saves managers time and ensures a steady flow of qualified, ready-to-work employees.

3. Cross-Train for Flexibility

Holiday demand shifts quickly. Cross-training employees across roles—picking, packing, inventory—creates a more agile team that can step in where needed most.

4. Build a Scalable Workforce

Staffing partnerships allow warehouses to scale up or down as volume changes, reducing costs while maintaining service quality. Flexibility is critical for meeting customer expectations during peak season.
