News - Command Center Assists with Hurricane Relief Efforts

Command Center, Inc. (OTCQB:CCNI) (http://www.ir-site.com/commandcenter/quote.asp), a national provider of on-demand and temporary staffing solutions, today announced that the company is already providing approximately 800 workers daily to assist with Hurricane Isaac relief efforts in the states of Louisiana and Mississippi.

The company said this high number of workers, which currently services about 20 project locations in those two states, is expected to increase in the coming days as water in certain other areas begins to recede. Many of Command’s workers are engaged in shifts of up to 12 hours to help bring relief as soon as possible to so many affected communities.

“This is the single largest relief deployment by our company since we assisted with clean-up activities following the Gulf Oil Spill two years ago,” said Command Center’s Chairman and CEO, Glenn Welstad. “Fortunately, we were well prepared for this kind of pressing need, and immediately brought in our highly skilled and experienced disaster recovery team from different parts of the country to manage this massive effort. On very short notice, our team has done an exceptional job in recruiting and mobilizing hundreds of workers to service major contractors in both states.”

Commenting on hurricane damage and subsequent clean-up activities, Mr. Welstad added, “Obviously, you don’t ever want to see this kind of devastation. But the reality is that when hurricanes and other types of natural disasters strike hard and disrupt communities, someone has to be ready to come in quickly and provide an organized and efficient clean-up effort. We are extremely pleased that, once again, we are able to be part of these hurricane relief efforts and provide much needed jobs within the impacted communities.”
