The Zero-Turnover Managed Services Model

HEMERA is not a staffing agency. We deliver integrated Managed Services, French technical expertise, contractually anchored by the E-2 visa, to give American aerospace manufacturers what the domestic market structurally cannot: operational certainty.

Managed Services, Not Temporary Staffing

Every technician is integrated into your operations under HEMERA's full responsibility, from selection to on-site performance.

A HEMERA Employee

Each technician is employed by HEMERA under a US employment contract. Direction, discipline and termination authority remain exclusively ours, never a liability transferred to you.

Dedicated HEMERA Supervision

Teams are deployed exclusively on your site as autonomous units, led by their own HEMERA supervisors and crew chiefs who interface with your shop managers: hands-on leadership, not isolated temps.

PO-Secured Deployment

No expert is deployed to US soil without a secured Purchase Order. Signing the PO triggers the exclusive reservation of the selected profiles; your capacity is locked in.

Three Convergent Locks

Where staffing agencies face 30-50% annual turnover, HEMERA secures structural retention over the full 48-month visa cycle through three locks that no domestic provider can replicate.

1

Legal Lock

The E-2 "Essential Employee" visa ties each technician's immigration status to HEMERA. No mobility to a competitor is possible without losing the right to reside in the US; turnover is structurally eliminated.

2

Financial Lock

A 401(k) plan with 6% employer match and progressive vesting over 3 to 5 years makes the opportunity cost of an early departure prohibitive; retention on par with the industry's biggest players.

3

Cultural Lock

A full expatriation support program (housing, schooling, vehicle, spousal employment support) anchors each household in a lasting future in America, well beyond the contract.

0%

Competitive-Exit Turnover

Our target: zero competitive-exit turnover, with gross residual turnover held in the 3-5% range (personal contingencies only). A 48-month stability cycle, versus the 8-to-12-month retention horizon of staffing agencies.

Stability secured by the E-2 "Essential Employee" framework

The Greatest Labor Shortage in US Aerospace History

HEMERA positions itself precisely at the intersection of an unprecedented skills shortage and a reservoir of certified, immediately deployable French expertise.
