We love our clients and want to show it! Each month we select one client to introduce in hopes that we help spread the word about their brand, services, and how they impact the Central Valley! This month we would like to introduce The Foundation for Medical Care of Tulare and Kings Counties! It was established in 1959 as a not-for-profit service organization. This foundation was established for the purpose of promoting the private practice of medicine, and to provide quality care at a reasonable cost. This wonderful organization specializes in administration of self-funded health benefit plans. They also offer a variety of computerized systems and other administrative services.

For more information, please visit their website at: http://www.tkfmc.org

We’d like to give a big shout out to Stephanie, Claims Assistant at Foundation for Medical Care! She has been chosen to be our March EOTM for the entire Visalia area! She always goes above and beyond and we are so happy to have her as part of the Hire Up team.

We stopped by to present Stephanie with her gift and certificate and here’s what her supervisor had to say: “Stephanie is a very quick learner and a team player. She is always willing to help and always has a bright smile on her face. Her knowledge of insurance has really helped her excel in this position.”

Stephanie, thank you for setting the bar so high! Keep up the great work.

We would like to recognize Alex – Administrative Assistant, as the February Hire Up Employee of the Month for the entire Fresno area! This title is given to the employees who go above and beyond in their position and truly shine. Here’s what her supervisor at CASA of Fresno & Madera Counties had to say about her: “Alex has been a joy to work with. Her attitude and work ethic make Alex an asset to CASA of Fresno & Madera Counties. She is thorough, detail oriented, professional, and a welcoming presence both in person and over the phone.”

Hire Up Staffing would like to give a big thanks to Alex for the amazing job she is doing!

While visiting CASA of Fresno & Madera Counties, the Hire Up team made a monetary donation to their great cause. We love to spread the word about organizations that make a BIG difference and this is one of them. See the flyers bellow for more information about it and how you can get involved.

Up until a few years ago, the terms of company drug and alcohol policies were pretty straight forward. In 2016 a law was passed in California making the private use of marijuana legal. This new law caused a lot of confusion for employees and we want to share some information to help.

While marijuana may be legal by law, it specifically does not change the legal status between employers and employees when it comes to drug testing and employment. This means that an employee can still be terminated for usage of marijuana. We recommend taking the time to look over your employer’s most recently updated drug and alcohol policy.

If you are an employee of Hire Up Staffing you know that we are committed to ensuring a substance-abuse free working environment for all of our employees through implementation and enforcement of a Substance Abuse Prevention Policy. For more details and to better understand our guidelines, please

The 12th Day of Giving is finally here and has been a special day for all of us at Hire Up. We chose to support Sinclair in their drive for Valley Children’s Hospital. Their entire team is working hard to collect games and toys for all of the young patients staying at the hospital during Christmas. Valley Children’s Hospital has been a staple in the Central Valley — providing pediatric care since 1949. Over the years, they’ve treated thousands and saved the lives of even more. From tiny premature babies all the way to young adults, all youngsters are accepted as patients here. Some of the kids at Valley Children’s spend will spend most of their lives in the hospital. When the holidays come around, little acts of kindness like this help to light up their hearts. We all know that medical bills can be costly, so every little gift helps to lift these kids spirits. Want to donate? We hope you will! Contact Kim by email: [email protected] or by phone: 559-233-4500. Thank you for being a part of our 12 Days of Giving!

There are only 13 days until Christmas and that means just 2 days left in our 12 Days of Giving campaign! That makes today the 11th day and we chose to support FreshKO Produce in their drive to collect toys for Toys for Tots. This seems to be one of the most popular charities in the Central Valley this year. With all of our support, Toys for Tots is able to help an abundance of children in need! Today we delivered a big back of toys to FreshKO’s office. If you are interested in supporting their drive, contact Kim by email: [email protected]

Remember, any donation — big or small will make a difference. Keep in mind that Toys for Tots requests new, unopened, unwrapped toys! Thank you in advance for your involvement and support.
