By entering into a First Source agreement with TSG and DOES, your company can count each of our DC resident laborers towards your First Source reporting. Using TSG for your labor solution needs means low risk for you (employees are on our payroll & insurance) while still being the best and most reliable way to meet your First Source obligation.
