Largest Staffing Firms in the United States: 2021 Update | November 24, 2021

Largest Staffing Firms in the United States: 2021 Update Introduction: • This report highlights 186 companies that generated at least $100 million in US staffing revenue in 2020. Added together, these firms generated $95.1 billion in such revenue, making up 69.9% of the market by our estimates. The full list of companies appears starting on page 5.

• We define “staffing” revenue as revenue generated from the provision of temporary workers to business clients, as well as from “place & search” services (direct hire/ permanent placement and retained search.) We also include revenue from “temp-tohire” conversions.

• We have ranked companies by revenue, according to industry custom, but this ranking should not be taken to imply that a firm with a higher rank provides better service or more value to its shareholders.

• Staffing firms varied in degree of financial transparency, and even when forthcoming with information, in some cases data provided was adjusted for greater accuracy and consistency. Therefore, for all firms listed in this report, the revenue figure shown represents an estimate by Staffing Industry Analysts.

• Overall, we believe that this list is accurate and can be used appropriately to get a “big picture” reading of the US staffing industry landscape. However, as transparency and availability of information from staffing companies can vary from one year to the next, this year’s estimates may not be comparable to those of previous years in all cases. For that reason, we did not display prior year revenue estimates in this report.

• Additional details on the methodology of this report are provided on page 15.

This represents the 26th annual report on the largest staffing firms in the US, produced by Staffing Industry Analysts. All of the companies listed were invited to provide their revenue numbers via online survey in February and March 2021. For firms that did not participate in the survey, revenue estimates were based on company reports, company websites and other sources. Our lists are of strong interest to staffing buyers, and we hope those listed will benefit from the increased buyer awareness. Firms not on this list that feel they should have been included are encouraged to contact Staffing Industry Analysts, as we will be releasing a follow‐up briefing for any late additions. Many thanks to the staffing firms who offered their encouragement and assistance in this year's report process.

Largest Staffing Firms in the United States: 2021 Update | November 24, 2021

Observations on the Largest Staffing Firms in the United States (1/2)

•

The 186 staffing firms identified in this report represents a record number that have achieved $100 million or more in scale. For comparison, last year’s report regarding 2019 revenue identified 175 staffing firms and our report regarding 2010 revenue identified 98 staffing firms of such scale. For more insight on the growth of the US staffing industry over time, see our most recent US Staffing Industry Forecast report.

•

The US staffing industry continues to be a fragmented industry with many competitors. The largest firm in the US market, Allegis Group, held 6.8% of the market last year while the combined 186 companies in this report represented 69.9% of the market. Randstad and Adecco were the second and third largest firms, accounting for 3.3% and 2.6% market share, respectively.

•

Among the companies in this report, industrial temporary staffing was the largest revenue segment for 61 firms (33% of the total 186 listed), IT for 57 firms (31%), and healthcare for 37 firms (20%). In contrast, the office/clerical and finance/accounting temporary staffing segments were each the largest for 3 firms, a low number of companies given the size of these segments. The remaining firms noted the following segment as their largest: engineering (7 firms), life sciences (6 firms), retained search (6 firms), marketing/creative (3 firms), direct hire (1 firm), legal (1 firm), and education (1 firm).

•

For a further breakdown of the 37 staffing firms with healthcare staffing as their largest skill segment, 22 firms offered travel nursing as their largest segment, followed by locum tenens (6), per diem nursing (5), and allied healthcare (4).

•

17 firms are included in this year’s report that did not appear in last year’s version: 22nd Century Technologies, AB Staffing Solutions, Ampcus, Ascend Staffing, Axiom, ConnectRN, IDC Technologies, KellyMitchell Group, LRS Healthcare, Midway Staffing, Net2Source, NuWest Group, Pride Global, ProLink Staffing, Resource Employment Solutions, Trusted Health, and Workrise.

•

19 staffing firms generated $1 billion or more in US staffing revenue last year. Added together, these companies generated $50.1 billion in such revenue, comprising more than a third (36.9%) of the US staffing industry.

Largest Staffing Firms in the United States: 2021 Update | November 24, 2021

Observations on the Largest Staffing Firms in the United States (2/2)

•

In terms of the US corporate headquarters location for firms in this report, California is home to 18 firms, followed by Georgia (17), Florida (16), and New York (14). Illinois, New Jersey, and Texas are each home to 13 companies. Ohio is the headquarters of 10 firms, while Massachusetts, Michigan, and Virginia are each the home of 7 companies.

Pennsylvania is home to 6 firms, and Utah home to 5 companies.

•

To our knowledge, at least 14 companies (8% of the total list) on this year’s list are owned by entities based outside of the United States. These firms are Randstad Holding, Adecco, Recruit, NES Fircroft, Impellam Group, Specialist Staffing Group (Sthree plc), PDS Tech (AKKA Group), The Peoplelink Group (Groupe CRIT), Egon Zehnder, NTT Data Services, Paramount Staffing (Proman Group), Accountable Healthcare Staffing (UHS Partners), Hays, and DOCS (ICON plc).

•

29 companies (16% of the total list) in this year’s report are either publicly traded or owned by a parent company that is publicly traded.

•

Among the 15 largest companies, 9 are publicly traded and 6 are privately owned. The six privately held firms among this group are Allegis Group, Express Employment Professionals, EmployBridge Holding Company, Insight Global, CHG Healthcare Services, and Aya Healthcare.

•

Regarding M&A activity, while deals involving firms on the list acquiring other firms on the list were quite few in 2020, a flurry of such large transactions has occurred so far this year: •

In 1Q21, Snelling Staffing was acquired by HireQuest.

•

In 2Q21, Signature Consultants was acquired by Digital Intelligence Systems (DISYS), Softworld was acquired by Kelly Services, and Airswift merged with Competencia.

•

In 3Q21, AKKA Technologies (parent of PDS Tech) was acquired by Adecco, Cella was acquired by Randstad, and Ettain Group was acquired by ManpowerGroup.

•

In 4Q21, Lucas Group was acquired by Korn Ferry, and Hire Dynamics was acquired by EmployBridge.

Largest Staffing Firms in the United States: 2021 Update | November 24, 2021

Additional definitions and explanation of methodology •

For the purposes of this report, we define “staffing” revenue as revenue generated from the provision of temporary workers to business clients, as well as from “place & search” services (direct hire/permanent placement and retained search.) We also include revenue from “temp-to-hire” conversions. We exclude revenue generated from other services offered by staffing companies: consulting services where billing is based on deliverables; process outsourcing (MSP, RPO, HRO); PEO and payrolling; outplacement; VMS; and “Talent Platform” services. Definitions of industry terms can be found in our online lexicon.

•

The “staffing” revenue figures found in this report conform to the above definition to facilitate consistency and comparability across companies. In addition, this definition of staffing revenue aligns with the market size estimates that we produced in our most recent US Staffing Industry Forecast report, published in September 2021. This alignment allows us to calculate the market share for each listed company by dividing its staffing revenue by our 2020 market size estimate of $136.0 billion.

•

To the extent possible, the staffing revenue estimates shown in this report include the full-year (“pro forma”) 2020 revenue of any staffing firms acquired during 2020. We do this to more accurately reflect market share of the acquiring firm moving forward. We call out noteworthy staffing firm acquisitions in the footnotes of this report. More details can be found in our M&A database.

•

Revenue estimates reflect calendar year 2020 and include gross staffing revenue generated by franchises.

•

Due to the complexity involved with producing the staffing revenue estimates in this report, the presence of acquisition revenue, and variability from one year to the next in the availability of data, comparisons of revenue estimates from last year’s report and this year’s report do not necessarily provide a reliable measure of revenue growth at a particular company or for a particular market segment. For better insight on revenue growth trends in the US staffing industry, we recommend our US forecast reports.

•

Regarding the data sources used for this report, we invited staffing firms in February to complete a detailed Excel-based application form indicating 2020 staffing revenue by country and segment. A substantial majority of the companies appearing in this report supplied revenue information via the application form, which was then validated by comparison with other publicly available data.

For companies that chose not to supply revenue information, we made staffing revenue estimates based on publicly available information and our own research. Revenue estimates were sent to company management for review, and in many cases feedback received resulted in more accurate final estimates.

•

Regarding the headquarters locations listed in this report, we listed the US headquarters rather than the global headquarters for some staffing companies that have a parent company based outside of the US.

•

We invite our readers to contact us with any questions on our revenue estimates and we welcome feedback or additional data that will assist us in our research coverage and improve our revenue estimates related to the companies featured in this report.
