Our History

Before starting Work Comp Staffing Solutions in 2007, President David Schek developed and operated Culi Services, a nationwide staffing and human resource company. For 18 years, Culi-Services serviced thousands of clients and employed tens of thousands of workers annually in 35 states. David’s company worked with large food service facilities that used mostly low to medium wage workers. Obtaining low cost workers compensation programs was essential to maintaining profitability. His company grew into a 65-office staffing business, servicing 35 markets and generating 27M in sales. David and his management team identified various work comp solutions, and developed relationships with numerous workers compensation carriers and specialty staffing programs. The management team also configured back office payroll operations to manage growth in their offices and at the corporate level.

In 2006, David sold the business. He then created Work Comp Staffing Solutions in 2007 to help other staffing owners develop more efficient and more cost-effective workers compensation insurance options. Since its founding, Work Comp Staffing Solutions’ goal has been to increase the profits of its clients by referring them to the LEAST expensive and most appropriate workers compensation solution in the market.
