RECRUITMENT
Total Labour Force’s primary function is to supply our clients with qualified labour that can service the individual requirements of our client’s working environment. We are dedicated to working alongside our clients to creating a smooth recruitment strategy that revolves around the operational requirements of the contract at hand. We are able to satisfy these requirements by calling on our databases which cover an extensive array of skill sets.
Our aim is to service the client with a comprehensive recruitment strategy by:
Ascertaining from the client the nature of the contract and the special needs that may need to be factored into the operational environment.
The expected duration of the contract and expected number of laborers that may be required.
Whether the contract will require specialized medicals, inductions or certification which will then be arranged prior to the contract commencing.
Once the specific needs of the clients operations have been determined Total Labour Force will then begin recruiting labour from our database and the surrounding localities if need be. Those potential candidates will be screened and interviewed to ascertain their suitability for the contract. Once the potential employees have been screened and identified the following will be conducted
A safety induction will be conducted which explains the basics of injury on duty procedures as well as the use of personal protective equipment.
A Total Labour Force Orientation will be done to explain wages and wage payments, grievance procedures, absenteeism, codes of conduct and duties to the client.
The employee will then be equipped with Personal Protective Equipment and delivered to site at the appointed start date of the contract.
