What We’ve Learned from Experience
At Vertex Skill Link, we understand the realities of workforce management. After years in the industry, we’ve learned to accept and navigate the things we can’t control—so our clients don’t have to face them alone. Here are some truths we’ve come to know:
- The market sets the pace—wages and talent availability are constantly shifting.
- Sometimes, people simply don’t show up.
- Workers can leave a job without warning.
- People resign for many different reasons, often unexpectedly.
- Accidents happen—even with the best safety practices in place (which is why safety is always our top priority).
- Great individuals don’t always make great employees.
- People can change their minds at any time.
- Even strong job offers get declined.
- Not everyone can be available at a moment’s notice.
- Employees miss work due to illness—and sometimes, say they’re sick when they’re not.
- People can surprise you—for better or worse.
That’s why we focus on building resilient staffing strategies, so you’re prepared for what’s predictable and supported when the unexpected happens.
We Own Our Mistakes

We rely on the strength of our client partnerships to work through issues together, and we’re committed to implementing real solutions that reduce risk and prevent future problems.

Addressing Challenges Is What Gives Us Our EDGE
At Vertex Skill Link, we don’t just react to workforce issues—we get ahead of them. Our EDGE program is built on three core strategies that guide everything we do:
Mitigating workforce challenges by identifying opportunities and eliminating risks early.
Implementing processes and procedures that drive successful outcomes for both our clients and our associates.
Proactively addressing issues that could impact performance, productivity, or long-term success.
This proactive, solutions-driven approach is what sets us—and our clients—ahead in a competitive market.
