Core Focus Personnel, LLC

Core Focus Personnel, LLC is an Alabama-based staffing and training provider established in 2013 to serve the automotive sector and now supports a broad range of light industrial and logistics employers across the greater Jefferson, Tuscaloosa, and Shelby County areas. Operating from its headquarters in McCalla with a satellite branch in Alabaster, the firm blends recruiting with hands-on skills verification and compliance-focused training to ensure safe, productive, and right-fit placements. Its recruiting and staffing services encompass targeted talent acquisition, rigorous pre-employment skills verification, criminal background screening, motor vehicle record checks, and drug and alcohol screening, complemented by full-spectrum HR support and personalized onboarding programs configured to each client’s operating environment. To de-risk hiring and accelerate time to productivity, Core Focus maintains warehouse, classroom, and mobile-equipment training spaces at both locations, where candidates complete OSHA-aligned safety training and orientation, forklift skill training, and practical examinations that validate proficiency on forklifts and other mobile equipment. These capabilities are available as stand-alone services or integrated into staffing engagements, allowing employers to satisfy regulatory requirements, strengthen safety cultures, and lower hiring and training costs while building deeper, more reliable talent pipelines. Clients in automotive manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution rely on Core Focus to align job-specific criteria with validated candidate capabilities so associates arrive prepared for the demands of production floors and logistics operations. The company’s two-day Beginner Operator Program gives entry-level forklift operators a safe, non-production environment to learn theory, safety, and technique through multiple iterations of a practical driving course, building confidence before they enter customer facilities. For experienced operators, Core Focus provides structured forklift skill verification and mobile equipment certifications tailored to each customer’s layouts, loads, and processes, creating a consistent standard that hiring managers can trust and auditors can verify. Employers benefit from improved OSHA compliance readiness, fewer incidents, and smoother onboarding, while candidates gain industry-recognized credentials that support career advancement. With individualized placement at the forefront of its mission, Core Focus invests in customer-specific onboarding and continuous feedback to ensure placements match requirements, culture, and shift realities, delivering a predictable workforce for plants, warehouses, and distribution centers across central Alabama.
