“Empire Airlines was founded 40 years ago as a North Idaho-based company and has been asked to relocate to other regions of the country many times. We weighed those opportunities carefully but have always decided that being headquartered in Idaho is very important to who we are as a company. Lifestyle, quality of life, access to state and local leaders play a big part in our desire to stay in North Idaho. In addi- tion, we have a great local workforce, K-20 education and CTE train- ing opportunities. We are here to stay.” Tim Komberec President/CEO Empire Airlines THE INDUSTRY’S FASTEST GROWING STAFFING SOLUTION Using our state-of-the-art candidate sourcing system, LAUNCH provides OEMs and tiered suppliers access to qualified and ready candidates with just the right skills and experience level. • Assemblers, technicians and engineers • Direct hire resources • Temporary to permanent hire • Fixed work scope and special project teams Contact our Western Region office to learn more: 425.309.3473 LAUNCHTWS.COM LAUNCH TECHNICAL WORKFORCE SOLUTIONS | WESTERN REGION OFFICE | 22722 29TH DR.
