Canberra Labour Hire

Canberra Labour Hire is a family-owned labour hire and recruitment business serving Canberra and the surrounding region. It says it has served the region for more than five years. It describes itself as a specialist for Canberra's civil, residential and commercial sectors, and says it began by supporting the construction industry and now also serves government entities and corporate clients. It also reports placing staff in manufacturing, logistics and hospitality.

Clients can choose between two models. Under temporary labour hire, a minimum four-hour shift applies, the company invoices the client for hours worked and pays the candidate itself, and it handles payroll, tax compliance and leave management. Under temporary-to-permanent hire, an employer trials a candidate before deciding whether to hire. For that route the company advertises the role, interviews candidates and presents at least three of them.

The roles it fills include general labourers, demolition labour, tradespeople such as bricklayers and welders, drivers, project managers and site engineers. It works across Canberra suburbs and nearby New South Wales towns including Queanbeyan, Goulburn and Bungendore, from an office in Mitchell.
