For companies
When people are suddenly missing.
We have been bringing people and companies together since 2012. Tell us what you need; we will tell you whether and how we can fill it.
How we work together
Three routes, depending on the need
- 01
Temporary staffing
The employment contract is with akko GmbH; the work happens in your operation. We are the employer with every right and duty — pay, holiday and continued pay all run through us.
- 02
Permanent placement
We search and select; the contract is made directly between you and the person. For roles meant to be filled for good.
- 03
Master vendor / on-site
We steer the staffing needs of a site as the single point of contact — with our own premises there where it makes sense, as at Frankfurt Airport.
What we staff
Airport
Cargo handling, airline catering, ground services — blue collar and white collar. Plus training, certificates and the security background check.
Logistics and industry
Warehouse and dispatch, machining, maintenance, planning. The same dispatch work, just without a runway.
What you can hold us to
Audited, not asserted
We quote no rates and no response times here — nobody verifies those. These certifications, on the other hand, are verifiable.
- ISO 9001:2015 — certified by TÜV Rheinland, the cross-sector standard for process-oriented quality management.
- SCP (Sicherheits Certifikat Personaldienstleister) — the occupational safety certification for staffing providers under SCC, TÜV-audited.
- Member of the GVP — applying the industry’s collective agreement system in full.
- Licence for temporary agency work under the German AÜG.

The fastest route is a direct one
Your company, a contact person and your need in a few sentences — we settle the rest by phone.
What companies ask us
What is the difference between temporary staffing and permanent placement?
The difference is the employment contract. With temporary staffing the employees are on akko’s payroll and work in your operation — flexible, and without administrative effort for you. With permanent placement the contract is made directly between you and the person. Temporary staffing suits peaks, seasonal operations or when you want to stay flexible; placement suits a position you want to fill permanently in your own team. The two combine — an assignment can turn into a transfer.
Which areas do you staff?
At the airport, among others: cargo, baggage handling, check-in services, terminal cleaning, catering outlets, lounge services and airline catering. In logistics: warehousing, order picking, forklift operations and dispatch. Plus skilled workers in trades, industry and office roles — up to management positions. Ask us about profiles that are not listed here too: we will tell you honestly whether we can fill them.
Do you handle the security background check?
Yes. Where a deployment requires a background check (ZÜP), we assess the prerequisites in advance, file the application from day one in parallel with recruiting, and follow it through to approval. Before the start we provide aviation security and dangerous goods (DGR) training and prepare people for the apron driving permit; our own aviation security officer oversees this.
How quickly can you provide staff?
From our pool of already cleared people, often at very short notice. Where a background check is required, we file the application from day one in parallel with recruiting — which lets new staff start up to four weeks earlier than usual. How long the authority takes in an individual case is its own decision; we tell you what to expect in the first conversation.
What if the regional labour market is empty?
Through our EU Talent Hub we recruit semi-skilled and skilled workers in a structured way, for example from Italy and Spain. A language course to at least level A2 runs before arrival, and the background check runs in parallel.
We work with several providers. Can you consolidate that?
Yes, as a master vendor or on-site provider. We steer the suppliers centrally under uniform standards; existing partners can stay. At Frankfurt Airport we have our own premises on site for this.
Can we take on staff from a temporary assignment?
Yes. We agree the terms for a transfer in advance and set them out transparently in the contract — so there is no surprise when an assignment is to become a permanent job. For many clients this is how they get to know new staff in everyday work before committing.
How is this billed?
For temporary staffing, via an hourly rate that depends on qualification, shift model and length of assignment. Wages, social security contributions and the administration of the staff sit with us and are included. A placement carries a fee based on the position. Either way, you receive an individual quotation.
How is akko certified?
akko GmbH is certified by TÜV Rheinland to ISO 9001:2015 and SCP. SCP stands for Sicherheits Certifikat Personaldienstleister, the occupational safety certification for staffing providers under SCC. We are also a member of the German staffing association GVP and hold the licence for temporary agency work under the German AÜG.
Who is my contact at akko?
One named person who knows your operation and stays reachable after the staffing decision. Everything about your assignments comes together in one place — dispatch, contracts and certificates.
Thank you — your message has arrived.
