Wherever you have a need, we can be there. Our goal at Impact is to provide labor in all areas of your facility, from manufacturing to distribution. Our presence in seven states testifies that we can do this across the country. Our nationwide company has significant strength in areas all over the map, including: Lebanon, Memphis and Nashville, Tenn.; Northern Mississippi; the Chicago land area of Illinois; City of Industry, Fontana, Mira Loma, Ontario, Redlands, Riverside and Victorville, Calif.; Corsicana, Dallas and Grand Prairie, Texas; Atlanta and Savannah, Georgia; and York, Penn. If you are located near these areas of operation and would like to save 5 - 25% of your annual labor cost, contact us at Impact. Owner and CEO of Impact, David Hamilton, said, "Certainly if you have need in another city, we are able and willing to work with you to provide service anywhere in the United States." He continued, "We are not tied down to one location but offer our labor model to any warehouse anywhere."
 
Impact has grown to be the nation's premier on-site workforce provider by basing its business model on production incentive. You don't pay for hours worked but for the work performed. We ensure our employees are rewarded by their performance, therefore they work quickly and efficiently to get the job done and you pay a fixed cost. This model has worked effectively across the country and we are confident from our past experience that it will work for you wherever you may be.
 
Let us save you time and money by providing you with labor based on the cost per unit model. To learn how to partner with us today, contact Keny Hatley at khatley@iels.com or 901-301-5113.

 Keep It Clean and Under Lock-Down

As the safety director of Impact, here are two tips that I have found will help you maintain a safe and secure facility.
 
Safety Tip - Believe it or not, good housekeeping is a great safety tool. A clean environment encourages several things. First of all, once a work place is picked up, it is more likely to remain that way. A clean place also displays organization at the site. If things are put away, it means the warehouse has taken time to find a place for everything. In addition to an orderly work environment, good housekeeping prevents injuries. If pieces of wood from pallets are picked up and in their rightful place, lifts will not jump over or drag wood across the warehouse floor. Trip hazards can be avoided, as well, by keeping loose paper and cardboard off the ground. A well-kept warehouse indicates a well-run warehouse because if housekeeping is in order, other operation functions are probably in order too.
 
Security Tip - Where's the best place to steal a company secret? Computers, phones and dumpsters. The first hazard you should be aware of is unlocked computers. Always lock the computer when you leave a room and shut down the computer when you leave for the day. Phones should be on lock-down also. If you sit down with your cell phone in your pocket, it could accidentally call the last number dialed or any of your contacts. This gives others access to your conversations without you even knowing. An easy solution to this is to put your numbers lock on your phone when you're not using it or leave it in a holster instead of a pocket. The final step to insure maximum security is to shred important papers instead of putting them in the trash. You can then have an independent company pick up the shredded paper. Propriety information is easily accessed so be careful. You don't want it ending up in the wrong hands, taking away your competitive edge.
 
As always, stay safe!
