Canada - Largest staffing firms listed

August 06, 2013

Staffing Industry Analysts released its list of the largest staffing firms in Canada. The annual list includes all 21 staffing firms with C$50 million or more in staffing revenue in Canada in 2012.

Combined, these firms generated C$4.8 billion in Canadian staffing revenue, which comprised 55 percent of the total market. Staffing Industry Analysts estimates the 2012 Canadian staffing market grew 11 percent in 2012 to reach C$8.7 billion. The Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar have been on a roughly one-to-one ratio recently.

“Demand for staffing in Canada was particularly strong in 2012, as reflected in the revenue figures of Canada's largest staffing firms,” said Research Analyst Timothy Landhuis. “Looking ahead, we expect slower market growth in 2013 as staffing demand pushes further into record territory, and year-over-year comparisons become tougher.”

The five largest firms in Canada and their estimated 2012 Canadian staffing revenue:

  1. Adecco: C$679 million, 8 percent market share
  2. Randstad: C$650 million, 7 percent market share
  3. Procom: C$500 million, 6 percent market share
  4. Design Group Staffing: C$390 million, 4 percent market share
  5. Allegis Group: C$385 million, 4 percent market share
