NATURE OF OPERATIONS

NATURE OF OPERATIONS	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 29, 2019
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Nature of Operations	NATURE OF OPERATIONS BG Staffing, Inc. is a national provider of temporary staffing services that operates, along with its wholly owned subsidiaries BG Staffing, LLC, B G Staff Services Inc., BG Personnel, LP, BG Finance and Accounting, Inc., BG California IT Staffing, Inc., BG California Multifamily Staffing, Inc., and BG California Finance & Accounting Staffing, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”), primarily within the United States of America in three industry segments: Real Estate, Professional, and Light Industrial. The Real Estate segment provides office and maintenance field talent to various apartment communities and commercial buildings, in 30 states, via property management companies responsible for the apartment communities' and commercial buildings' day-to-day operations. The Professional segment provides skilled field talent on a nationwide basis for information technology ("IT") and finance and accounting client partner projects. The Light Industrial segment provides field talent primarily to logistics, distribution, and call center client partners needing a flexible workforce in Illinois, Wisconsin, New Mexico, Texas, Tennessee and Mississippi. Our business experiences seasonal fluctuations. Our quarterly operating results are affected by the number of billing days in a quarter, as well as the seasonality of our client partners’ business. Demand for our Real Estate staffing services increase in the second and is highest during the third quarter of the year due to the increased turns in multifamily units during the summer months when schools are not in session. Demand for our Light Industrial staffing services increases during the third quarter of the year and peaks in the fourth quarter due to increases in the demand for holiday help. Overall demand can be affected by adverse weather conditions in the winter months as well as fluctuations in client partner demand. In addition, our cost of services typically increases in the first quarter primarily due to the reset of payroll taxes. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position and operating results of the Company as of and for the respective periods. However, these operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full fiscal year or any other future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, management of the Company believes, to the best of its knowledge, that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Company has determined that there were no subsequent events that would require disclosure or adjustments to the accompanying consolidated financial statements through the date the financial statements were issued. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018 , included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTI

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 29, 2019
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Fiscal Periods The Company has a 52/53 week fiscal year. Fiscal periods for the consolidated financial statements included herein are as of September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 , and include the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , referred to herein as Fiscal 2019 and 2018 , respectively. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2018 financial statements to conform with the 2019 presentation. Management Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates affecting the financial statements include goodwill, intangible assets and contingent consideration obligations related to acquisitions. Additionally, the valuation of share-based compensation option expense uses a model based upon interest rates, stock prices, maturity estimates, volatility and other factors. The Company believes these estimates and assumptions are reliable. However, these estimates and assumptions may change in the future based on actual experience as well as market conditions. Financial Instruments The Company uses fair value measurements in areas that include, but are not limited to, the allocation of purchase price consideration to tangible and identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other current assets and liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of bank debt approximates fair value due to the variable nature of the interest rates under the credit agreement with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (“BMO”) that provided for a revolving credit facility and term loan and current rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and risk. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. Concentration of Credit Risk Concentration of credit risk is limited due to the Company's diverse client partner base and their dispersion across many different industries and geographic locations nationwide. No single client partner accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 or revenue for the thirty-nine week periods ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018 . Geographic revenue in excess of 10% of the Company's consolidated revenue in Fiscal 2019 and the related percentage for Fiscal 2018 was generated in the following areas: Thirty-nine Weeks Ended September 29, September 30, Maryland 10 % 11 % Tennessee 16 % 14 % Texas 29 % 29 % Consequently, weakness in economic conditions in these regions could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of future operations. Accounts Receivable The Company extends credit to its client partners in the normal course of business. Accounts receivable represents unpaid balances due from client partners. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for expected losses resulting from client partners’ non-payment of balances due to the Company. The Company’s determination of the allowance for uncollectible amounts is based on management’s judgments and assumptions, including general economic conditions, portfolio composition, prior loss experience, evaluation of credit risk related to certain individual client partners and the Company’s ongoing examination process. Receivables are written off after they are deemed to be uncollectible after all reasonable means of collection have been exhausted. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. Changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts are as follows: Thirteen Weeks Ended Thirty-nine Weeks Ended September 29, September 30, September 29, 2019 September 30, 2018 Beginning balance $ 468,233 $ 473,573 $ 468,233 $ 473,573 Provision for (recovery of) doubtful accounts, net 34,667 21,514 6,065 39,389 Amounts written off, net (34,667 ) (21,514 ) (6,065 ) (39,389 ) Ending balance $ 468,233 $ 473,573 $ 468,233 $ 473,573 Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated net of accumulated depreciation and amortization of $2.7 million and $2.1 million at September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 , respectively. Deposits The Company maintains guaranteed costs policies for workers' compensation coverage in Texas, Washington, and Ohio and minimal loss retention coverage for team members and field talent in the Light Industrial segment and other non-Texas employees. Under these policies, the Company is required to maintain refundable deposits of $3.4 million and $2.9 million , which are included in Deposits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 , respectively. Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets, primarily fixed assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. The Company looks primarily to the undiscounted future cash flows in its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired. There were no impairments during Fiscal 2019 or Fiscal 2018 . Leases The Company leases all their office space through operating leases, which expire at various dates through 2025 . Many of the lease agreements obligate the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance and certain maintenance costs, which are accounted for separately. Certain of the Company’s lease arrangements contain renewal provisions from 1 to 10 years, exercisable at the Company's option. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company determines if an arrangement is an operating lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. All other leases are recorded on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for the lease term. Right of use lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term and include options to extend or terminate the lease when they are reasonably certain to be exercised. The present value of lease payments is determined primarily using the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement date. The Company’s operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses. Intangible Assets The Company holds intangible assets with indefinite and finite lives. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives, ranging from three to ten years, based on a pattern in which the economic benefit of the respective intangible asset is realized. Identifiable intangible assets recognized in conjunction with acquisitions are recorded at fair value. Significant unobservable inputs are used to determine the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets based on the income approach valuation model whereby the present worth and anticipated future benefits of the identifiable intangible assets are discounted back to their net present value. The Company capitalizes purchased software and internal payroll costs directly incurred in the modification of software for internal use. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed in the period incurred. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company annually evaluates the remaining useful lives of all intangible assets to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. Goodwill Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated at the reporting unit level for impairment annually at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently, if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary. If the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value for one or more reporting units is greater than their carrying value, the Company may use a qualitative assessment for the annual impairment test. Deferred Financing Fees Deferred financing fees are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the respective loans. Debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability. Contingent Consideration The Company had obligations, to be paid in cash, related to its acquisitions if certain operating and financial goals were met. The fair value of this contingent consideration is determined using expected cash flows and present value technique. The fair value calculation of the expected future payments uses a discount rate commensurate with the risks of the expected cash flow. The resulting discount is amortized as interest expense over the outstanding period using the effective interest method. Revenue Recognition The Company derives its revenues from three segments: Real Estate, Professional, and Light Industrial. The Company provides temporary staffing and permanent placement services. Revenues are recognized when promised services are delivered to client partners, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. Revenues as presented on the consolidated statements of operations represent services rendered to client partners less sales adjustments and allowances. Reimbursements, including those related to out-of-pocket expenses, are also included in revenues, and the related amounts of reimbursable expenses are included in cost of services. The Company records revenue on a gross basis as a principal versus on a net basis as an agent in the presentation of revenues and expenses. The Company has concluded that gross reporting is appropriate because the Company (i) has the risk of identifying and hiring qualified field talent, (ii) has the discretion to select the field talent and establish their price and duties and (iii) bears the risk for services that are not fully paid for by client partners. Temporary staffing revenues - Field talent revenues from contracts with client partners are recognized in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, when the services are rendered by the Company’s field talent. Permanent placement staffing revenues - Permanent placement staffing revenues are recognized when employment candidates start their permanent employment. The Company estimates the effect of permanent placement candidates who do not remain with its client partners through the guarantee period (generally 90 days) based on historical experience. Allowances, recorded as a liability, are established to estimate these losses. Fees to client partners are generally calculated as a percentage of the new worker’s annual compensation. No fees for permanent placement services are charged to employment candidates. Refer to Note 11 for disaggregated revenues by segment. Payment terms in our contracts vary by the type and location of our client partner and the services offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. There were no unsatisfied performance obligations as of September 29, 2019 . There were no revenues recognized during the thirty-nine week period ended September 29, 2019 related to performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods. There are no contract costs capitalized. The Company did not recognize any contract impairments during the thirty-nine week period ended September 29, 2019 . Share-Based Compensation The Company recognizes compensation expense in selling, general and administrative expenses over the service period for options or restricted stock that are expected to vest and records adjustments to compensation expense at the end of the service period if actual forfeitures differ from original estimates. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period adjusted to reflect potentially dilutive securities. Antidilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share. The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the respective periods: Thirteen Weeks Ended Thirty-nine Weeks Ended September 29, September 30, September 29, September 30, Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding: 10,239,126 10,109,791 10,233,725 9,368,840 Effect of dilutive securities: Stock options and restricted stock 69,684 181,012 90,853 227,846 Warrants 34,863 51,756 41,293 41,930 Weighted-average number of diluted common shares outstanding 10,343,673 10,342,559 10,365,871 9,638,616 Stock options and restricted stock 306,750 175,000 306,750 175,000 Warrants — — — — Antidilutive shares 306,750 175,000 306,750 175,000 Income Taxes The effective tax rates of 24.1% and 23.3% for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended September 29, 2019 , respectively, and 21.3% and 17.7% for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended September 30, 2018 , respectively, were primarily due to state taxes, the Work Opportunity Tax Credit, and the deductibility in Fiscal 2018 related to the Option Cancellation Agreement for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts are classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for net operating loss and tax credit carryovers. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense or benefit for the period. Effects of changes in enacted tax laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense in the period of enactment. When appropriate, the Company records a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets to offset future tax benefits that may not be realized. In determining whether a valuation allowance is appropriate, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized, based in part upon management’s judgments regarding future events and past operating results. The Company recognizes any penalties when necessary as part of Selling, general and administrative expenses. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. ASC Topic 740 prescribes a more-likely-than-not measurement methodology to reflect the financial statement impact of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income, which applies to trade accounts receivable and the calculation of the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. The new standard will become effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this accounting guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements. Since the Company currently uses an expected losses from customers method, the Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which provides guidance to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the Step 2 procedure from the goodwill impairment test. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning with the fourth quarter of 2020. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Debt	DEBT On July 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), maturing July 16, 2024, with BMO, as lead administrative agent, lender, letters of credit issuer, and swing line lender. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) permitting the Company to borrow funds from time to time in an aggregate amount up to $35 million . The Credit Agreement also provides for a term loan commitment (the “Term Loan”) permitting the Company to borrow funds from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed $30 million . The Company may from time to time, with a maximum of two , request an increase in the aggregate Term Loan by $40 million , with minimum increases of $10 million . The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible property of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement bears interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Company also pays an unused commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of Revolving Facility and Term Loan. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and negative covenants. The Company is subject to a maximum Leverage Ratio and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 29, 2019 . The Company borrowed $20 million under the Revolving Facility to pay off existing indebtedness of the Company under the Amended Credit Agreement (as defined below) and such agreement (and related ancillary documentation) was terminated on July 16, 2019 in connection with such repayment. The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.5 million related to the unamortized deferred finance fees. In April 2017, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) with TCB with an aggregate commitment of $55.0 million . The Amended Credit Agreement provided for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility with TCB”), permitting the Company to borrow funds from time to time in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of the borrowing base amount, which was 85% of eligible accounts receivable, and $35.0 million and also provided for a term loan (the “Term Loan with TCB”) in the amount of $20.0 million with principal payable quarterly, based on an annual percentage of the original principal amount as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement. The Revolving Facility with TCB and Term Loan with TCB bore interest either at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin (as such terms were defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). All interest and commitment fees were paid quarterly. Additionally, the Company paid an unused commitment fee on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Facility. The Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement were secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible property of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value, and establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. The fair value hierarchy established prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows: Level 1 - Observable inputs - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2 - Observable inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities - includes quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets, and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and Level 3 - Unobservable inputs - includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and require us to develop relevant assumptions. The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level they fall within the fair value hierarchy: Amounts Recorded at Fair Value Financial Statement Classification Fair Value Hierarchy September 29, December 30, Contingent consideration, net Contingent consideration, net - current and long-term Level 3 $ — $ 2,363,512 The changes in the Level 3 fair value measurements from December 30, 2018 to September 29, 2019 relates to the $2.7 million in payments, which included $0.2 million in an extension of the Zycron acquisition covenant not to compete intangible asset, and $0.1 million in accretion. The key inputs in determining the fair value of the contingent consideration as of September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 include management's estimates of future sales volumes and EBITDA.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN_2

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 29, 2019
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fiscal Year	Fiscal Periods The Company has a 52/53 week fiscal year. Fiscal periods for the consolidated financial statements included herein are as of September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 , and include the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2018 financial statements to conform with the 2019 presentation.
Management Estimates	Management Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates affecting the financial statements include goodwill, intangible assets and contingent consideration obligations related to acquisitions. Additionally, the valuation of share-based compensation option expense uses a model based upon interest rates, stock prices, maturity estimates, volatility and other factors. The Company believes these estimates and assumptions are reliable. However, these estimates and assumptions may change in the future based on actual experience as well as market conditions.
Financial Instruments	Financial Instruments The Company uses fair value measurements in areas that include, but are not limited to, the allocation of purchase price consideration to tangible and identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other current assets and liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of bank debt approximates fair value due to the variable nature of the interest rates under the credit agreement with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (“BMO”) that provided for a revolving credit facility and term loan and current rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and risk.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Accounts Receivable	Accounts Receivable The Company extends credit to its client partners in the normal course of business. Accounts receivable represents unpaid balances due from client partners. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for expected losses resulting from client partners’ non-payment of balances due to the Company. The Company’s determination of the allowance for uncollectible amounts is based on management’s judgments and assumptions, including general economic conditions, portfolio composition, prior loss experience, evaluation of credit risk related to certain individual client partners and the Company’s ongoing examination process. Receivables are written off after they are deemed to be uncollectible after all reasonable means of collection have been exhausted. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated net of accumulated depreciation and amortization of $2.7 million and $2.1 million at September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018
Deposits	Deposits The Company maintains guaranteed costs policies for workers' compensation coverage in Texas, Washington, and Ohio and minimal loss retention coverage for team members and field talent in the Light Industrial segment and other non-Texas employees. Under these policies, the Company is required to maintain refundable deposits of $3.4 million and $2.9 million , which are included in Deposits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 , respectively.
Long-Lived Assets	Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets, primarily fixed assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. The Company looks primarily to the undiscounted future cash flows in its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired. There were no impairments during Fiscal 2019 or Fiscal 2018 .
Leases	Leases The Company leases all their office space through operating leases, which expire at various dates through 2025 . Many of the lease agreements obligate the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance and certain maintenance costs, which are accounted for separately. Certain of the Company’s lease arrangements contain renewal provisions from 1 to 10 years, exercisable at the Company's option. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company determines if an arrangement is an operating lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. All other leases are recorded on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for the lease term.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets The Company holds intangible assets with indefinite and finite lives. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives, ranging from three to ten years, based on a pattern in which the economic benefit of the respective intangible asset is realized. Identifiable intangible assets recognized in conjunction with acquisitions are recorded at fair value. Significant unobservable inputs are used to determine the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets based on the income approach valuation model whereby the present worth and anticipated future benefits of the identifiable intangible assets are discounted back to their net present value. The Company capitalizes purchased software and internal payroll costs directly incurred in the modification of software for internal use. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed in the period incurred. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company annually evaluates the remaining useful lives of all intangible assets to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization.
Goodwill	Goodwill Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated at the reporting unit level for impairment annually at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently, if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary. If the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value for one or more reporting units is greater than their carrying value, the Company may use a qualitative assessment for the annual impairment test.
Deferred Financing Fees	Deferred Financing Fees Deferred financing fees are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the respective loans. Debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability.
Contingent Consideration	Contingent Consideration The Company had obligations, to be paid in cash, related to its acquisitions if certain operating and financial goals were met. The fair value of this contingent consideration is determined using expected cash flows and present value technique. The fair value calculation of the expected future payments uses a discount rate commensurate with the risks of the expected cash flow. The resulting discount is amortized as interest expense over the outstanding period using the effective interest method.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition The Company derives its revenues from three segments: Real Estate, Professional, and Light Industrial. The Company provides temporary staffing and permanent placement services. Revenues are recognized when promised services are delivered to client partners, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. Revenues as presented on the consolidated statements of operations represent services rendered to client partners less sales adjustments and allowances. Reimbursements, including those related to out-of-pocket expenses, are also included in revenues, and the related amounts of reimbursable expenses are included in cost of services. The Company records revenue on a gross basis as a principal versus on a net basis as an agent in the presentation of revenues and expenses. The Company has concluded that gross reporting is appropriate because the Company (i) has the risk of identifying and hiring qualified field talent, (ii) has the discretion to select the field talent and establish their price and duties and (iii) bears the risk for services that are not fully paid for by client partners. Temporary staffing revenues - Field talent revenues from contracts with client partners are recognized in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, when the services are rendered by the Company’s field talent. Permanent placement staffing revenues - Permanent placement staffing revenues are recognized when employment candidates start their permanent employment. The Company estimates the effect of permanent placement candidates who do not remain with its client partners through the guarantee period (generally 90 days) based on historical experience. Allowances, recorded as a liability, are established to estimate these losses. Fees to client partners are generally calculated as a percentage of the new worker’s annual compensation. No fees for permanent placement services are charged to employment candidates.
Share-based Compensation	Share-Based Compensation The Company recognizes compensation expense in selling, general and administrative expenses over the service period for options or restricted stock that are expected to vest and records adjustments to compensation expense at the end of the service period if actual forfeitures differ from original estimates.
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period adjusted to reflect potentially dilutive securities. Antidilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The effective tax rates of 24.1% and 23.3% for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended September 29, 2019 , respectively, and 21.3% and 17.7% for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended September 30, 2018 , respectively, were primarily due to state taxes, the Work Opportunity Tax Credit, and the deductibility in Fiscal 2018 related to the Option Cancellation Agreement for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts are classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for net operating loss and tax credit carryovers. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense or benefit for the period. Effects of changes in enacted tax laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense in the period of enactment. When appropriate, the Company records a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets to offset future tax benefits that may not be realized. In determining whether a valuation allowance is appropriate, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized, based in part upon management’s judgments regarding future events and past operating results. The Company recognizes any penalties when necessary as part of Selling, general and administrative expenses. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. ASC Topic 740 prescribes a more-likely-than-not measurement methodology to reflect the financial statement impact of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income, which applies to trade accounts receivable and the calculation of the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. The new standard will become effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this accounting guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements. Since the Company currently uses an expected losses from customers method, the Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which provides guidance to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the Step 2 procedure from the goodwill impairment test. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning with the fourth quarter of 2020. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
