Industries We Service Across Melbourne
Our Melbourne labour hire service covers practical roles across different industries, where having the right person available at the right time can make a real difference to daily operations.
Construction & Trades
We supply general labourers, trade assistants, and carpenters for residential and commercial builds. Workers placed on construction sites carry a current White Card. We can also prepare a tailored SWMS when required. Trades available at Labour Revolution include carpenters, bricklayers, plumbers, electricians, concreters, form workers, and steel fixers. Our carpenters are equipped with professional toolkits that may include drop saws and nail guns, and vehicles are available where required.
Warehousing & Logistics
In Melbourne’s logistics corridors, from the west to the south-east, warehouses need staff who can keep pace without constant supervision. We place pick-pack staff, forklift operators, and general warehouse labour into sites that run on tight turnaround times. For roles that require a forklift licence, we check the worker's relevant licence before confirming the placement.
Manufacturing & Food Production
We help manufacturing and food production businesses maintain staffing levels when production schedules change or when they need additional hands. Available workers can support production lines and general labour tasks across busy facilities. Where a position involves food-handling requirements, we source candidates with suitable experience for the conditions and responsibilities.
Transport
Transport and freight operations depend on having enough people available to keep yards and supporting tasks running efficiently throughout each shift. We provide general labour and yard staff for short-term requirements, changing workloads, and ongoing workforce needs. Placements can also be arranged around the shift patterns required by the operation.
Areas We Serve Across Melbourne
We support businesses across Melbourne's metropolitan region, including jobs in and around the CBD and key commercial and industrial areas such as Dandenong, Laverton North, Truganina, Tullamarine, Sunshine, and Mulgrave. If your workplace is elsewhere in metropolitan Melbourne, speak with our team about your location, start time, and staffing requirements.
Victorian Labour Hire Licensing & Compliance
Victoria regulates labour hire providers through the Labour Hire Authority. Providers supplying labour hire services must hold a current Victorian labour hire licence, and host businesses should check a provider's status before engaging them.
Labour Revolution operates under Victorian Labour Hire Licence VICLHL10526. You can verify our current licence status through the Labour Hire Authority's public register. For relevant placements, we check required licences and tickets before workers are supplied. Construction workers also arrive with a current White Card and required PPE. We can also prepare tailored Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS) for relevant high-risk construction work.
Labour Hire for Businesses and Work Opportunities for Candidates
For Melbourne Businesses
Need vetted and insured workers for your next project? Tell us how many people you need, what they will be doing, and the experience the work requires. We can provide labour for a single day, a defined project period, or ongoing support, giving you room to adjust workforce numbers as the job changes.
For Job Seekers
Labour Revolution regularly looks for experienced labourers and tradespeople with a strong work ethic and a professional attitude. If you are seeking employment in Melbourne, submit your details through our recruitment process so the team can assess your experience and suitable opportunities.
How Our Labour Hire Charge Rates Work
The standard charge rate at Labour Revolution covers the worker's hourly wage, mandatory superannuation, WorkCover insurance, payroll tax, and operational administration. This means the charge rate covers more than the worker's hourly wage, so it should not be compared directly with an employee's base hourly rate. If you are comparing labour hire in Melbourne with employing someone directly, call us now for a clear quote based on the role, experience level, and staffing requirements of your business.
