Training and Development
Concrete operators are made, not recruited
Training, Competency and Induction is a policy in our management system, and the procedures behind it cover inductions, consultation, communication and site inspections. In practice it means nobody works on one of our sites without the tickets for what they are doing and an induction they actually understood. Concrete cutting and repair operators are genuinely scarce in this country, so almost every one of ours was trained here.
We pay for the training. Construction induction cards, plant tickets, high risk work licences, confined space and working at heights, asbestos removal training and supervisor qualifications. People come on as labourers and move up, and a significant number of our supervisors and managers started that way. On top of that sit the ones specific to this trade: scanning, post tension awareness, silica controls and health monitoring, and confined space entry.
Perfect Concrete Care acknowledges the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as Traditional Custodians of the country on which we live and work. We pay our respects to the Traditional Custodians and Elders past, present and future, and honour their connection to the land and ongoing contribution to society.
