In the outsourcing landscape, many of our competitors, both onshore and offshore opt for practices that prioritize short-term gains at the expense of their employees and clients. This bombshell exposé from ProPublica shows how companies we all use every day, partner with outsourcers who are mobilizing elaborate legal constructs to get around labor laws.
Other unethical outsourcing companies treat people as disposable, paying below a living wage, offering minimal training, and cycling through people quickly. At HigherRing, we prioritize living wage compensation, benefits, paid training and cultivate an environment that fosters growth and opportunity.
We hire our entire team (both full and part-time people) as employees, and everyone is eligible for health care, company ownership, and other benefits such as paid time off.
What is ethical outsourcing?
We especially love working with clients who are mission-driven. Many of our clients have B Corp, 1% for the Planet, or Climate Neutral certifications just like HigherRing, or are nonprofits. Most of our clients are working to solve some of the world’s most critical challenges. Some examples of the great work of our clients, past and present, include:
DEIB awareness
creating equitable access to funding for underrepresented entrepreneurs
regenerative agriculture and nutrition access
access to clean energy options
fighting the opioid crisis
addressing social and emotional needs in classrooms
increasing the sustainability of packaged goods
providing more sustainable food options via meat/seafood alternatives
giving a second life to plastic waste to protect the health of our oceans
Our team members are often activists and many find their way to HigherRing because they are excited to support a client that is making the world a better place. Our employees are involved in reproductive rights, reducing food waste, improving access to nutrient dense foods, reducing food deserts, fighting for fair wages, creating urban ecosystems that provide education and increased access to fresh foods, advocating for equitable voting rights, animal rescue initiatives + more!

Our Hiring Model
