In the last seven decades, DECCO has dealt
withmany business challenges that have been
thrown their way. From industry practices to
evolving industries, innovation and tackling
their client’s “mission impossible” projects,
the company faced the obstacles head on
and overcame them with tact and awareness.
Now, DECCO are constantly leading the re-
gion and adapting to what the work brings.
However, recently, the merit shop contrac-
tor, based out of Brookline, NewHampshire
had its internal allegiance tested by a local
trade union out of Boston.
“A local trade union came in and tried to
convince our people that there was a better
way to go and that they should join them,”
DECCO Vice President Tim Barton said.
“They put on a six-week robust campaign
that targeted 87 of our employees and aimed
at convincing them to be part of their broth-
erhood.”
“But after everything was said and done, 68
of that targeted group said ‘no thank you,
DECCO is where I want to spend my career’
Barton continued. “They often cited how
they liked the core values; they appreciated
the camaraderie, team and family element. It
was a litmus test of whether what we believe
to be true is present throughout the organi-
zation.”
