ABOUT US

Work Direct Labour Hire Pty Ltd started in 2004 initially to service a need in the rural/agriculture sector for labour hire. Due to our continued success, we have now expanded our business with industrial (blue collar) to compliment our clients and employees needs.

We operate a team approach using the latest technology to track workers at various locations around North West Tasmania. Our field officers can personally aid clients in supervising the work place and through our office, electronic updates are monitored by management.

Whether our employees are working in the walnut plantations, the potato paddock, the farmer’s broccoli field, a processing/packaging factory, or working on site, all care and consideration is shown towards the workers and the clients needs.

With over 20 years combined experiences in the labour industry, you can be assured Work Direct will expertly assess your needs and advise you accordingly. Without our clients and employees, we would not have a business. We make it our business to make sure your business is successful.
