Introduction to AATSS

The Arizona Association of Temporary Services (AATS) was incorporated in the State of Arizona on December 6, 1985, as a non-profit trade association for the temporary help industry, and was founded by Glenda R. Dahlberg. All officers, and committee members serve in a voluntary or elected capacity, without compensation. AATSS currently represents over 150 companies in the State of Arizona, encompassing over 300 temporary help offices within the state, and includes a subchapter in Tucson.

To reflect members' changing needs and our affiliation with the National Association, the board of Directors unanimously voted in December 1994, our name change to the Arizona Association of Temporary & Staffing Services.

The Arizona Association of Temporary & Staffing Services is governed by a set of bylaws embodying the purposes and objectives of the assocation. These are subscribed to by AATSS member firms, whose principal service is the provision of competent staffing to business, industry, professional and service organization and public government entities.

In the best interest of AATSS membership, consisting of temporary and staffing services, its clients, and its employees, we subscribe to and ask for a pledge to a CODE OF ETHICS supporting the highest ethical standards of business practice.

AATSS works for the benefit of all members, large and small, through government relations, industry information, public relations, leadership, guidance, and self-regulation. By being concerned, involved and informed, you can be a part of our industry's continued growth.
