Is hiring hard work?

Not here.

In fact, engaging the workers you need couldn’t be easier. When you come in or call, we help select the appropriate worker(s) for the job, establish a fair wage that’s agreed to up front by both parties, make introductions, and that’s it. You can provide transpor-tation, or we will coordinate getting workers to your home or business site. The hiring process is easy, convenient and dignified. You pay the worker when the day’s work is done.

For employers and workers,

We’re the center of everything.

The Pasadena Community Job Center is the “go-to” place for day laborer services.

Besides linking employers with workers, the Center monitors worker quality. We also help day laborers find full-time work and set up small businesses of their own. We promote workforce development through skills training and English language classes. And we foster stronger relationships within families and between neighbors, with community-building efforts such as sports leagues.

All in all, we are dedicated to helping people — both men and women — reach their potential as breadwinners for their families and productive members of our community.

“I have a big lot and need gardening and clean-up help all the time. I couldn’t even tell you how many guys I’ve hired there through the years — hundreds. Really nice people and hard workers.”

Pasadena Homeowner, Susan Zelkwitz
