DriveItAway Holdings, Inc. an automotive mobility platform, has announced June 21 its partnership with industrial staffing company Partners Personnel, one of the largest staffing companies in the U.S.
This collaboration aims to provide stability for employees who lack a form of reliable transportation by offering affordable electric vehicle options. The initiative pairs a job with an electric vehicle in a subscription-to-ownership model.
DriveItAway and Partners Personnel identified a common obstacle facing today’s competitive job market: a lack of reliable transportation that leads to job dissatisfaction and increased turnover rates.
Recognizing the impact this challenge has on both employees' personal lives and their ability to succeed in the workplace, the two companies embarked on a partnership to provide a tangible solution.
“We are proud and delighted to expand our service with Partners Personnel to help those who need a vehicle to get to the job,” said founder and CEO of DriveItAway John F. Possumato in a recent news release.
DriveItAway’s expertise in affordable electric vehicles combined with Partners Personnel's commitment to the well-being of its associates, led to a synergetic partnership that provides transportation solutions and promotes a greener future.
Electric vehicles offer numerous benefits, including reduced emissions, lower maintenance costs, and improved fuel efficiency.
"By offering affordable electric vehicle options, we are providing a solution that enhances the stability and well-being of our associates, while also promoting sustainability and reducing our collective impact on the environment,” said Kristy Gebhart, Regional Vice President, and Chair for the Associate Resource Committee at Partners Personnel. “I can’t think of a better way to further our company mission of helping people and organizations improve."
