About

Established in 2002, TeamLease is one of India’s leading people supply chain company, delivering a broad range of human resource services across industries, with a vision of ” Putting India to Work.” Through its staffing business, TeamLease identifies and maintains qualified employees on its payrolls which it ‘leases’ on a temporary basis to Indian employers across numerous industry verticals. TeamLease is also one of India’s leading permanent staffing companies, where it identifies and places mid-level and junior-level staff directly with Indian corporations. Across businesses TeamLease serves 2,000+ employers and till date has cumulatively employed more than a million associates. In addition to employment, TeamLease’s services extend to education & employability training. The company has set up TeamLease University - India’s first of its kind vocational university in Gujarat. The university offers affordable and short-term courses matched with industry needs. TeamLease also offers vocational training through the Indian Institute of Job Training (IIJT). Vocational training is particularly relevant in the Indian context, as India’s K-12 public education system is broken and produces individuals who are unemployable and need ‘repair’ before taking on employment. Backward integrating into education and employability provides the staffing business a competitive advantage in sourcing qualified candidates.
