Founded in 1969 as Labor Services Inc. by Bill Guss, ALTRES began with a simple but innovative approach, raising a blue flag near Waikīkī Beach to signal work availability to surfers and local workers. This early model evolved into a full-service staffing and HR provider, pioneering the outsourcing of payroll and employment administration for companies operating in Hawaii. Over the decades, the company has expanded its reach and services, becoming Hawaiʻi’s largest staffing company and a trusted partner for businesses of all sizes across multiple industries.

The company’s primary office is located at 967 Kapiolani Blvd in Honolulu, HI, situated along a major thoroughfare on the island. This central location supports its statewide operations and access to key business and government areas across Oahu.

ALTRES Staffing is recognized for its long-standing commitment to simplifying business operations in Hawaii, having served the region since 1969. Its deep roots in the community, combined with a proven track record in staffing and HR, establish it as a leading resource for both employers and job seekers across the islands.
