Quality
As a cornerstone of TDB’s Quality Assurance plan, we have documented both a quality policy and stated quality objectives to differentiate us from our competition. To meet and or exceed both our quality policy and objectives we focus on excellent performance of five fundamental staffing categories: Recruitment, Screening, Competence, Orientation and Retention.
Recruitment-Recruiting the most qualified employee is a challenging process. TDB’s unique method for recruiting and screening applicants is one of the many aspects of TDB that sets us apart from the competition.
Recruitment sources include personal referrals, job fairs, newspaper advertising, college placement offices and the Internet.
Screening-In order to assure the client a perfect match, TDB has developed and implemented a thorough screening process.
Each applicant must have an appointment to assure punctuality. Everyone completes a detailed application and is given ample time to review several standard policy forms.
Once the applicant has successfully completed the packet, he or she is given a series of test appropriate for their background and the type of position they desire.
A staff member who has been professionally trained to use the interview as a tool to uncover any concealed information then conducts a private interview. It is our policy to hire only those with a proven record of stability.
Following the interview and prior to an offer, we conduct a background check and verify references. We also can perform drug screening and research criminal files as required.
Competence-Each applicant’s qualification are verified by Human Resources and matched against the competence requirements of the position. HR maintains records supporting competence, awareness and training in personnel files.
Orientation-TDB has initiated On-Site Partnering with key clients for employees placed at a large account. For these key clients TDB provides an orientation program designed specifically for that facility.
Retention-Because we offer a robust package to our temporary employees, they are more likely to remain on their assignment to earn eligibility.
