Why TQN Personnel
On a civil job, one worker without the right ticket can stop a crew. We check White Cards, high risk work licences and TMR traffic controller accreditation before mobilisation, not at the gate. Workers are briefed on what your site expects, from PPE to pre-start meetings, and if anyone is not right for the job we replace them the same day at no cost. You deal with one contact who knows the Rockhampton region and the sites in it.

Local projects driving labour hire demand in Rockhampton

Labour hire has been a licensed activity in Queensland since 16 April 2018. Under the Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017, any provider supplying workers to a Rockhampton site needs a licence, and the business using those workers must only engage a licensed provider. Before you take on any labour hire crew in Rockhampton, search the provider on the public register through the Queensland labour hire licensing site and ask for the licence number in writing. Building and construction workers, including those engaged through labour hire, can also register with QLeave for portable long service leave.
FAQs
How fast can labour hire in Rockhampton get workers to site?
For ticketed general and civil roles, workers can be on your site within 24 hours of your call. Roles needing specialist licences or site-specific inductions may take a little longer, and we will tell you when you brief us.
Do your Rockhampton workers hold traffic control tickets?
Our traffic controllers hold Queensland traffic controller accreditation from Transport and Main Roads. Accreditation lasts 3 years, and only accredited people can do traffic controller work in Queensland.
What happens if a labour hire worker is not right for the job?
Tell us and we will replace them the same day at no cost. We would rather fix a mismatch on day one than have it slow your crew down for a week.
Can labour hire workers in Rockhampton get portable long service leave?
Yes, if they do eligible building and construction work. QLeave lets workers engaged through labour hire register and earn service credits, up to 220 a year, and claim 8.67 weeks of paid leave after 2,200 credits.
Do I need to check a labour hire provider's licence in Queensland?
Yes. Businesses in Queensland must only use licensed labour hire providers. Check the provider on the public register before work starts and keep a record of the licence number.
