We know offices. We also know shop floors and job sites.
Ethos has supported companies from machine shops and electrical contractors to wellness practices and professional firms. That range means we understand hourly teams, production pressure, safety requirements and field employees, not only office policy.
Manufacturing & machine shops
Production schedules, hourly teams, overtime, safety documentation and supervisors who need backup on attendance and performance.
Construction, electrical & skilled trades
Crews in the field, questions about worker classification, drug and alcohol policies, vehicles, and hiring for hard-to-fill roles.
Oil & gas
Safety-sensitive work, multi-site teams and the documentation discipline these environments demand.
Field services & remodeling
Owner-operators growing past the point where everyone reports to the founder, and needing structure without bureaucracy.
Professional & financial services
Growing offices that need clear policies, fair compensation structures and managers who can lead.
Medical & wellness
People-first practices that need consistent onboarding, clear expectations and solid employee relations.
Different industries. The same growing pains.
Whatever you build, fix or deliver, the people challenges at 5, 25 and 60 employees look remarkably similar.
- An office manager who inherited HR on top of everything else
- Great technicians promoted into management without training
- Policies that live in someone’s head instead of in writing
- Inconsistent hiring, onboarding and discipline
- Employees in more than one state
