Canberra Labour Hire

Canberra Labour Hire is a family owned and operated staffing agency serving the broader Canberra region and nearby NSW towns including Queanbeyan, Goulburn and Bungendore. Founded in 2017, the company has grown on the strength of clear ethics, local knowledge and high professional standards, providing fast, reliable labour and recruitment support to civil, residential and commercial construction projects across suburbs such as Fyshwick, Mitchell, Gungahlin, Belconnen, Woden and Tuggeranong. Clients can engage the business in two simple ways: on demand temporary labour hire with a four hour minimum and rapid turnaround, often placing qualified workers within 24 hours, and a temporary to permanent model that allows employers to trial talent before hiring on a fixed fee basis. As the employer of record for on hired staff, Canberra Labour Hire manages payroll, tax compliance, employment regulations, leave and benefits, issuing a straightforward invoice that reflects approved timesheets captured via their mobile workflow. The team supplies general labourers, demolition crews, trades and operators, traffic controllers and drivers, as well as site based white collar roles such as project managers, foremen, estimators, site engineers and quality specialists. They also recruit gardeners and cleaners for residential, schools and aged care environments, providing steady opportunities for job seekers across day, afternoon and night shifts. Their recruitment process includes advertising, resume screening, in person interviews and shortlisting, typically presenting at least three candidates for clients to trial or hire. Employers value the flexibility to scale up or down, the speed of replacement if a temporary worker is not the right fit, and the ability to test capability and cultural fit without long term commitment. Workers appreciate consistent site safety focus and ticket requirements, fair treatment and clear pay, with general labourers available from $62 per hour. Based in Mitchell ACT, Canberra Labour Hire helps companies meet project deadlines while building a dependable local workforce.
