The situation
Lifa Air is an air purification equipment manufacturer founded in Helsinki in 1988.
The challenge
With the coronavirus period, Lifa Air faced a shortage of labour caused by sudden growth. Growing revenue called for quick additional recruitment, because production workers, packers and operators were needed at the factory immediately.
The solution
Wellpack stepped in as a staffing partner and answered Lifa Air's needs with a tailored agency work model. The first recruitments started a few days after the client visit.
“As Lifa Air's revenue grew almost tenfold, we needed more people quickly. When the coronavirus hit, the challenges grew, and we had to make sure we had enough workforce to meet the growing demand.”
