ProTrade Staffing LLC supplies W-2 skilled tradespeople (sheet metal, HVAC, pipefitting, plumbing, electrical, general labor) to commercial contractors on New England jobsites. It acts as employer of record and handles payroll, taxes, workers' comp and general liability. • The FAQ states there is no online portal yet ('A contractor portal is in development'), although the navigation shows 'Contractor login' and 'Our Platform' links. client_portal was therefore not recorded. • The homepage shows a dashboard-style mockup (hours, crew filled, coverage). Given the FAQ statement, it was not treated as evidence of analytics or a live client portal. • worker_web is based only on an 'Employee login' navigation link; what that login provides is not described. • Page 1 contains a long encoded data block (appears to be embedded image/provenance metadata). It carries no business content and was ignored.

People and relationships

  • Client accounts
    Client agreement
    Each contractor signs a standard client agreement covering payment terms, a late fee and a non-solicit. This implies a persistent client relationship.

  • Client contacts and responsibilities
    Contractor foreman
    The contractor's foreman directs the work on site and signs the weekly timesheet. This is a named client-side responsibility distinct from the requester.
