Best of Staffing Award

Platinum Trusted Service Award
With more than half a century of experience in servicing the recruitment needs of the industry, CBSbutler won the Feefo Platinum Trusted Service Award for the fourth consecutive year. Feefo’s Platinum Trusted Service Award is its highest honor. Its unique accreditation and independent seal are a highly valued badge of approval of excellence, recognizing businesses for delivering exceptional experiences.

Brendan Flood, CEO and President of Staffing 360 Solutions, said, “For each year that goes by, I continue to be extremely proud of our dedicated, devoted and hard-working teams and the prestigious industry recognition they have earned. Less than 2% of all staffing agencies in the U.S. and Canada have earned ClearlyRated’s Best of Staffing Award for service excellence, and fewer than 1% have received its Diamond Award.”

Flood continued, “Our talented teams have continued to distinguish themselves by consistently providing exceptional customer service with an enhanced experience. This hallmark is a key differentiator for our brands, and this recognition, by some of the highest industry awards in the US and UK, is especially valued. We’ll continue to build upon our proven ability to consistently meet the needs of our clients by delivering a deep and broadening range of successful solutions."

About Feefo Trusted Service
Created by Feefo, Trusted Service is awarded only to businesses that use Feefo to collect genuine reviews and insights. Businesses who meet the high standard, based on the number of reviews they have collected and their average rating, receive the award. A highly valued badge of approval, this accreditation remains unique, as it is based purely on interactions with real customers. As all reviews are verified as genuine, the accreditation is a true reflection of a business’s commitment to outstanding service. Learn more at www.feefo.com.

Feefo gives Platinum Trusted Service awards to businesses that have achieved the Feefo Gold standard for three consecutive years or more. In normal times, the Feefo Gold Trusted Service award recognizes organizations that have collected at least 50 Feefo reviews in a year and have achieved a service rating of at least 4.5. This year, to avoid penalizing businesses suffering unduly from the effects of the coronavirus pandemic, the criteria has been adjusted. Organizations that won a Gold Trusted Service award last year but struggled to achieve the required number of reviews this year have been assessed on an average rating over the 24-month period covering 2022 and 2021
