Work readiness

Ready means ready.

Some people have always had someone asking these questions. Some haven't.

01

Got your boots?

02

Got your PPE?

03

Phone charged?

04

Know where you're going?

05

Know who you're meeting?

06

Know where you're staying?

How it works

LabourLok helps people build the habits they need for work.

  • 01We'll remind you.
  • 02We'll guide you.
  • 03We'll probably nag you occasionally.

But the goal is that eventually you don't need us to ask.

That's progress.

What employers expect

Five things that get you kept on.

01

Turn up

On time, every time. If something goes wrong, tell us before the start time, not after.

02

Be reliable

Do what you said you would do. Reliability is the first thing a site notices and the last thing it forgets.

03

Be safe

PPE on, rules followed, eyes open. Nobody gets kept on for being fast and unsafe.

04

Listen

Take the briefing in. Ask if you are not sure. Nobody minds a question. Everybody minds a guess.

05

Learn

Watch the trades. Ask what they are doing. That curiosity is how a labourer becomes a steel fixer.
