Production supervisor leading a shift-start huddle at a plant floor board — Integrity Staffing Group
Integrity Staffing Group places production supervisors, shift supervisors, and production managers for manufacturers, machine builders, and automotive suppliers across Metro Detroit.
A shift with no supervisor still runs. It just runs unowned: absences go uncovered, the schedule drifts, scrap goes uncounted until month-end, and nobody on the floor hears about safety from anyone. We screen supervisors on the floor they actually ran and the numbers they moved on it.

What a Production Supervisor owns on your floor

A production supervisor runs the shift: labor and machine assignments, the daily schedule, the KPIs, safety, corrective action on scrap, and a clean hand-off to the next crew.
Typical responsibilities we hire for
  • ›Shift labor planning and scheduling
  • ›KPI, OEE, and throughput ownership
  • ›Safety leadership and OSHA compliance
  • ›Scrap reduction and corrective action
  • ›Hiring, training, and performance management

Manufacturing & Skilled Trades Staffing — FAQ

Usually a vetted shortlist within days for contract coverage. A direct hire supervisor takes longer, because shift fit and comp have to line up before anyone says yes.

How fast can you place a production supervisor in Metro Detroit?
Usually a vetted shortlist within days for contract coverage. A direct hire supervisor takes longer, because shift fit and comp have to line up before anyone says yes.
Do you screen for Lean, 5S, and Six Sigma past the resume line?
Yes. We ask what they changed — the Kaizen they ran, the 5S line they held, the scrap number before and after — rather than taking a certification at face value.
Which ERP and reporting systems do your candidates use?
SAP most often, along with other ERP and MRP platforms for production reporting, labor tracking, and inventory. We confirm the system before we send a shortlist.
Can you fill afternoon and midnight shift supervisor seats?
Yes, and shift is one of the first things we qualify. A candidate who will not work nights is not a candidate for a night seat.
