The background
Matador is a successful food and beverage distribution company, most notable for being an exclusive distributor of the energy drink Red Bull. They were using traditional temp agencies, facing consistent issues with filling shifts and workers not showing up. Matador needed a solution to deliver quick and reliable access to workers.
“When I came across Indeed Flex, I liked how easy the platform was to use. It was simple to add shifts and find available workers in multiple cities. Rather than the alternative of having to find a different temp agency in every city we need.” – Lauren Henderson, HR Assistant at Matador
The challenges
- Consumer demand increasing, and unable to flex with demand
- Unreliable temporary workers
- Lack of visibility over worker pool
- Communication process with traditional staffing agencies
The solution
Speed of access to high-quality workers
A specific pool of favorite Flexers
Ability to rate workers and build a pool
"It is easier to check for updates on workers’ shifts or when they are not able to come in. We are able to plan ahead. Some agencies are a bit outdated and do not provide an online platform to check on worker status."
Lauren Henderson, HR Assistant at Matador
