About Us
Getting to Know Award Staffing
The mission of Award Staffing has not changed since our inception in 1988. We are committed to providing clients with unparalleled service and associates an opportunity for growth, all while serving the communities we live in or workarounds.
Today, Award Staffing has grown into a nationally recognized staffing agency with six locations throughout the Twin Cities. Though much in the world has changed since our launch, our service approach with a local focus has not. We have expanded our quality of service by using innovative technologies and inspired processes, making Award Staffing a prestigious staffing company.
Our Core Focus
Award Staffing is a people-centric company. This means everything we do as an organization starts and ends with our associates and clients. Each employee is focused on bridging the employment divide from meaningless to meaningful, from our office staff and on-site managers to our sales and recruiting teams.
Because of this, our singular organizational focus is to “Make people’s lives better by connecting them through meaningful work.”
It’s more than just a saying; it’s how we do business every day.

Redefining Work
Award Staffing has a long-standing commitment to being one of the most prestigious staffing agencies in the Twin Cities. This means continuously striving to redefine work by connecting great people with great companies with purpose and intent.
What does this mean?
It means that we believe that work shouldn’t be a redundant activity or just a paycheck. Nor should it evoke stress and anxiety. Work should be meaningful. It should be engaging and motivating while nourishing a sense of purpose and belonging. Provides structure, stability, and ultimately fulfillment.
Work is no longer simply a means to an end. Instead, now it is a part of who you are. It shapes your identity and contributes to your sense of self-worth. We bridge the divide from meaningless to meaningful. Let’s redefine work together.
