On May 27, 2014, General Employment Enterprises, Inc. announced that its Ohio-based subsidiary, TRIAD Staffing, which provides superior safety training and injury protocol, will join the Ohio Bureau of Worker's Compensation (BWC) retro group retrospective rating program administered by Spooner, Inc. and sponsored by the National Management Association for the 2014 BWC policy year, which shall be July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. 

On May 29, 2014, General Employment Enterprises, Inc. announced that Bill Paulding, former CEO of STAFFLOGIX, was named Manager of Business Development and Operations effective May 27, 2014.
 
Bill Paulding is a dynamic, resultsoriented leader with 15 years-experience and a proven track record in business development, executive management, organizational improvements and strategic planning within the staffing industry.  From 2006 to 2013, Mr. Paulding was the Chief Executive Officer of STAFFLOGIX, a full service staffing company, where he was responsible for setting the vision and strategic direction of the company. There, Mr. Paulding directed the executive team, sales and recruiting team, marketing and brand strategy, service offerings and built a strong company culture that tripled revenues in less than 5 years.  Moreover, Mr. Paulding was instrumental in expanding STAFFLOGIX from an IT staff augmentation company to a national full-service staffing firm which included entry into Light Industrial, Engineering, Accounting/Finance, Clerical, and Healthcare. Prior to founding STAFFLOGIX, Mr. Paulding was the President and Chief Executive Officer from 1996 to 2005 of SILYX Corporation, an information technology consulting company. There, Mr. Paulding developed and lead strategy for rapid sales growth – increasing revenues from $1 million to over $12 million. Having such extensive experience in both staffing and information technology industries, Mr. Paulding has become a subject-matter expert in the areas of recruitment, sales, management and information technology (as it impacts the industry).

Mr. Paulding holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Communication and Business, and a Master of Science Degree in Technology and Media from Western Illinois University.
