Owners Mike and Cindy Dumaine started this staffing business in 1985 as a franchise of a national company. In 2003, they agreed to part ways with the franchisor and renamed the company Point Staffing Services. They built the business, with the help of hard working employees, while raising four children. As local residents, they believe in supporting local businesses and charities. They believe that providing job opportunities for people in Greater Hartford and Greater Springfield is a service to the community. They are members of local Chambers of Commerce, the American Staffing Association, ANSERTEAM (a national staffing organization) and TempNet (an association of independent staffing companies). Mike was recently named to the Board of Directors of TempNet and is co-chair of the membership committee.
