    The US industrial staffing and strategic solutions market slowed down in 2024 due to persistent economic headwinds, including inventory destocking, elevated interest rates, and a cooling manufacturing PMI. Recent labor regulation changes have added operational complexities for providers managing shift-based workforces.
