By engaging a flexible and scalable recruitment team, advising on compensation and retention strategies, and offering legal consulting services, PRODENSA helped the client build a robust HR infrastructure that supported their operational goals across North America.
Overview
A U.S.‑based corporate entity in the commercial construction industry required comprehensive HR support to enhance their operations across the North American region. The CLIENT sought to recruit the necessary personnel, improve employee retention, and ensure compliance with labor laws. Additionally, they needed assistance in coordinating services such as lunch rooms, transportation, health and safety, and legal consulting. To address these needs, the CLIENT used PRODENSA services for two years to provide end‑to‑end HR solutions.
Project Stages

This stage involved identifying the key skills needed across various locations, determining the scope of recruitment, and assessing the current state of employee benefits and retention policies.

The recruitment team was designed to be flexible, allowing it to scale according to the CLIENT’s changing demands. This stage focused on filling critical positions with qualified candidates who matched the CLIENT’s skill requirements.

To address employee retention, PRODENSA provided advisory services on compensation packages, ensuring that they were competitive and aligned with industry standards. Additionally, retention policies were implemented, including improvements in working conditions, benefits, and employee support services such as transportation, lunch rooms, and health and safety measures.
Challenges & Solutions
