For Employers

Better support…better employees
Added value…no cost to employers

Why join our network of more than 150 Greater Cleveland employers? Because we help you find and retain qualified, dedicated full-time employees. And we all know—employees can make or break a business.

Towards Employment has successfully matched thousands of motivated individuals with many Cleveland area companies—ranging from small contractors to large multi-national corporations. And we’ve provided customized retention services at more than 30 work sites—helping companies keep good employees and train them for advancement.

From pre-screening and hiring…to support services for better work/life balance issues and less absenteeism or turnover…or customized training for front-line supervisors, we provide an efficient solution to entry-level staffing challenges. At no cost to the employer, we can help with:

  1. Sourcing… we help you find the right candidates
  2. Preparing… we can ensure that our graduates are ready to meet the needs of your company
  3. Pre-screening… we take care of sorting through candidates to find the best matches for your employment needs; including background checks and drug screens 
  4. Retention… we offer new employees assistance that gets them off to a good start, including help with child care and transportation, and continue to provide coaching to help employees adjust to the job and address any work-life balance issues that arise during the first 6-12 months–often a driving force behind employee absenteeism and turnover during the first year

Our staff is eager to learn about your company, your expectations regarding employee productivity and behavior on the job, the skills needed by your hourly wage workers and your hiring process and requirements in order to best match appropriate job seekers with your needs. We will offer you a single point of contact to facilitate communication. And, as noted above, we provide ongoing coaching to reinforce job performance expectations and offer realistic solutions to problems that can interfere with performance and retention.  

If you need a custom-designed solution to reduce your employee turnover and enhance job retention; look at ACHIEVE, our innovative worksite-based retention program. On a contract basis, ACHIEVE focuses on your entry-level workers or any specific group of employees, and delivers the services directly to the workplace for efficient access and alignment with your operating environment.

Since 2001, ACHIEVE has partnered with over 30 companies, providing 32,000 retention services to 4,000 low-wage workers.
