Description: TBI TrueBlue October 29, 2025

TrueBlue, Inc. (NYSE:TBI) delivers workforce-solution services across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Puerto Rico through three operating segments: PeopleReady, PeopleManagement, and PeopleScout.

PeopleReady, the largest segment, supplies general, industrial, and skilled-trade contingent labor to construction, transportation, manufacturing, retail, hospitality, and energy firms, and historically generates roughly 70 % of the company’s revenue.

PeopleManagement focuses on on-site industrial staffing and commercial-driver services, operating under the Staff Management, SIMOS Insourcing Solutions, and Centerline Drivers brands; it targets manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, and transportation customers that require managed labor pools.

PeopleScout offers recruitment-process outsourcing, talent-advisory, and managed-service-provider solutions, including the Affinix technology platform, employer-branding services, and compliance-monitoring programs for contingent-labor programs.

Key financial and market context (FY 2023): revenue of approximately $1.1 billion, adjusted EBITDA margin near 7 %, and a 4 % YoY increase in PeopleReady billings, driven by a sustained construction hiring boom and persistent labor-shortage pressures that favor contingent staffing models.

Sector-level drivers include a low-unemployment environment, rising wage inflation, and a projected 10 % CAGR growth in the U.S. recruitment-process-outsourcing market, all of which create tailwinds for TrueBlue’s diversified service lines.
