Colorado Staffing Association

What Colorado Staffing Association does

The Colorado Staffing Association (CSA) is a Colorado-based nonprofit trade association and the official state chapter of the American Staffing Association. It serves independently owned staffing agencies operating in Colorado and bordering states, focusing on temporary, contract, temp-to-hire, and direct hire staffing arrangements with W2 employees. The organization delivers member services including professional development programs, legislative support and advocacy on Colorado-specific employment law, industry networking events (an annual conference and an owners/executives retreat), educational webinars, and access to a vetted industry partner network spanning staffing software, payroll, back-office, benefits, marketing, screening, and CPA/consulting services. It has received the ASA Chapter Legislative Excellence Award and Chapter Achievement Award.

CSA's business model is subscription-recurring, anchored on membership dues from staffing agencies supplemented by tiered industry partner sponsorships (Platinum, Gold, Silver). The organization does not develop or sell software products; its technology footprint is limited to a Wild Apricot-powered member portal for profile management, invoicing, event registration, and resource access, plus a content-driven website operated in partnership with Haley Marketing. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and growth indicators are limited to qualitative signals such as scheduled 2026 events and an expanding industry partner directory. The association competes in a regional niche where its ASA chapter affiliation, brand recognition, and curated partner ecosystem constitute its principal defensible advantages against alternative membership models or independent lobbying efforts.

Broad incumbents

• American Staffing Association: The American Staffing Association (ASA) is the national umbrella trade association of which CSA is the state chapter, providing legislative advocacy, education, and networking to the US staffing industry across all states. Comparable as the broader, national version of CSA's exact function.
• World Employment Confederation: The World Employment Confederation (WEC) is the international umbrella body for the staffing and people services industry, representing national federations including ASA. Comparable as the international, broader-incumbent version of CSA's industry-association function.
• Society for Human Resource Management: SHRM is the largest global HR professional association, offering education, advocacy, certification, and member resources to HR practitioners. Comparable as a larger professional membership body with overlapping education, legislative, and member-benefit functions, though broader in scope than staffing-specific CSA.

Direct peers

Comparable as a directly parallel professional association serving similar staffing agencies with a similar member-benefit model.

Others

Comparable as an industry-focused organization whose content, conferences, and analysis overlap heavily with CSA's member services and content publishing.

Regional players

Comparable as a direct functional parallel to CSA at the state-chapter level, serving a different geographic market with the same member-benefit model.

Comparable as a parallel state-chapter trade association with the same model (membership, events, advocacy, partner sponsorships) but operating in a different regional market than CSA.
