Position description
To help us find the best candidates for you, we need a clear understanding of the tasks they'll be performing, and the skills required for success. Providing a well-written Position Description is an effective way to convey your needs and expectations.
Risk assessment
Risk assessment is not only a legal requirement across all states and territories in Australia, but it is also the most effective method for preventing costly and disruptive workplace injuries. Neglecting risk management can lead to significant costs and consequences for businesses, employees, their families, and the communities we serve.
Work instructions
Work Instructions may also be referred to as Safe Work Procedures, Standard Operating Procedures, or Best Practices. Regardless of the name, these written guidelines are essential for detailing how to safely perform hazardous tasks.
Site Safety Induction
When beginning work at a new location, there are numerous aspects we must understand to become a safe and effective team member. Site Safety Induction training is a crucial part of this learning process. The better the training, the faster we can become productive and the less likely we are to pose a risk to ourselves and others.
2. Visas and the right to work
We conduct regular VEVO reviews for foreign nationals to ensure their work rights remain valid.
We keep records of identity and VEVO checks to demonstrate our due diligence when needed.
To shield our client partners from penalties,we verify the identity, citizenship, and right to work of every worker we recommend. We verify the identity of every worker by obtaining a copy of each worker's passport, drivers' licence or other photographic identification.
3. Labour hire licensing
When you work with Oz Backpackers Agency, you can trust that you're partnering with a licensed labour hire provider. We go above and beyond to meet all compliance requirements.
Under the Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017, a mandatory licensing scheme was established to protect labour hire workers and support responsible providers. These licenses ensure that labour hire workers are treated fairly and paid appropriately.
Most states and territories, including Queensland, South Australia, and Victoria, now have established licensing scems for the labour hire industry.
