Our Story

Juvo began with two parents, wanting to make the working world a better place for hourly workers. With so many options available for salaried positions, Co-Founders Mark & Debbie Emery knew they had to solve for the gap
in the hourly workforce.

Our Mission

Over 80 million people in the U.S. are hourly workers. Our goal is to help these communities thrive, to connect employers with job seekers in their local neighborhoods, to increase business retention and to enrich and educate seekers.
