Details

Labor Network began over 30 years ago with a simple but powerful idea: connect good people with good work, and treat both sides of the equation with respect. From our earliest days, we’ve been rooted in the neighborhoods we serve, building personal relationships with employers, knowing our workers by name, and showing up when it matters most.

Over the years, our reach has grown to serve companies across the Chicago metro and northern Illinois suburbs. Our industries have expanded to include light industrial, skilled trades, food prep, manufacturing, machine operations, and packaging & fulfillment. But our approach hasn’t changed: move quickly, understand the work inside and out, and never lose sight of the people behind it.

We’re proud to be a legacy staffing company that has adapted with the times while staying true to the old-school Chicago values we were built on: honesty, hard work, and a handshake you can trust.
