Mountain View, California — Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA), the global research and advisory firm focused on staffing and workforce solutions, announced its 2026 Fastest-Growing Staffing Firms in the United States.

“Growth at this level does not happen by accident. It requires a clear strategy, strong leadership, disciplined execution, and a culture in which people are committed to moving the business forward,” said SIA President Ursula Williams. “Growing in any market is an achievement. Delivering sustained, organic growth through several years of disruption and changing workforce demands is truly exceptional. The firms recognized on this year’s Fastest-Growing Staffing Firms list have demonstrated the resilience, focus, and collective commitment required to outperform. Congratulations to their leaders and teams on this remarkable accomplishment.”

Companies qualify for the Fastest-Growing Staffing Firms list by meeting two objective criteria: generating at least $1 million in US staffing revenue during the base year (2021 for the 2026 list) and achieving an organic CAGR of at least 15% in US staffing revenue over the subsequent four years (2021-2025 for the 2026 list). Benefits in a Card (BIC) is the sponsor of SIA’s 2026 Fastest-Growing Staffing Firms list.
“I’ve spent my career helping companies grow, so I know how rare real growth is — and how few companies that talk about it actually deliver,” said BIC Founder and CEO Carl Stecker. “The ones included on this year’s list deliver. It’s an honor to celebrate what they’ve built, and exciting to think about what’s next.”
