Seasonal Staffing Expertise Across Industries
Overtime is more expensive than you think. With the real (often hidden) costs totaling 2.5x an employee’s hourly wage, stretching your team is far from the most cost-effective way to handle seasonal surges in your business.
With Ethan Allen, you gain access to quality seasonal workers so dependable you’ll wish you could keep them all year. Just like we’ve been doing for 50+ years.

A month-by-month guide from Ethan Allen Workforce Solutions — covering headcount planning, compliance, retention, and end-of-season prep from March through September.
Landscaping and Pool Maintenance
When your crews are maxed out and the season won’t wait, we place experienced outdoor workers fast. That way, you don’t have to turn down jobs or burn out your core team.
Hospitality & Event Staffing
From hotel surge coverage to servers, setup crews, and ticket staff, we keep your guest experience intact when headcount pressure is highest.
Warehouse & Light Industrial
Seasonal volume spikes don’t slow down for slow hiring processes. We place vetted warehouse and light industrial workers who can contribute from day one.
Pest Control
Seasonal infestations move on their own schedule. We place experienced pest control staff ready to step in when your call volume spikes.
Construction
Our seasonal recruitment extends across the full project lifecycle: estimators, project managers, site supervisors, and skilled trades in plumbing, HVAC, and carpentry.
Clinical Camp Nurses
Qualified healthcare staff for summer camps, placed with the credentials and experience your program requires.
Customer Service & Administrative Support
Keep service levels high during peak vacation periods with customer service reps, receptionists, administrative assistants, and bookkeepers who are ready to hit the ground running.
Retail
Peak season demands reliable coverage across every shift. We give you the flexible headcount to protect service levels without locking into permanent hires you don’t need year-round.
Manufacturing
Fatigue and errors compound fast on a production floor. We help you maintain output quality and safety standards during your highest-demand windows without overloading your permanent team.
Workforce Strategy. Not Just Staffing.
Filling open roles is the easy part to see. It’s the things you don’t see (e.g., compliance exposure, burnout risk, talent that’s already been placed) that cost employers the most during peak season.
We work with Hudson Valley businesses as a planning partner, not just a vendor you call when you’re already short-staffed.
Workforce Forecasting
We help you build a headcount plan before demand spikes. That way, your hiring isn’t reactive, your managers aren’t scrambling, and your best candidates aren’t already working somewhere else.
Talent Pipeline Building
Fifty years of local placements means we’re not starting from scratch when you call. We maintain an active, vetted pool of seasonal workers across every industry we serve to make your fill times faster and quality floor higher.
Compliance Support
Seasonal surges are when wage and hour violations are most likely to occur: overtime miscalculations, worker misclassification, scheduling law exposure, etc. We help you navigate the NY compliance landscape so peak season doesn’t become a liability.
Scalable Deployment
Whether you need two workers this week or twenty next month, we build staffing plans that flex with your actual demand curve. Not a fixed headcount that leaves you over- or under-resourced at the wrong moment.
