Across regional Australia, critical infrastructure projects are shaping the future of our communities — connecting regions, improving freight efficiency, and boosting local economies. Behind these complex builds is not only engineering excellence and state-of-the-art machinery but also a highly skilled and dependable workforce.
At the heart of these workforce solutions is Pandanus Workforce, a national leader in Labour supply for major civil construction projects. Our team is proud to support top-tier contractors in delivering high-impact infrastructure by managing and supplying full-site Labour solutions that drive productivity, safety, and performance.
End-to-End Workforce Support for Major Civil Projects
On a recently awarded $180M+ regional bypass project in New South Wales, Pandanus Workforce was engaged to deliver whole-of-site Labour hire across a multi-year construction program. From day one, we were responsible for managing a complete suite of roles, including:
-
Civil plant operators (excavators, graders, rollers, Moxys)
-
Skilled Labourers and civil tradespeople
-
Supervisors, leading hands, and safety personnel
-
Traffic controllers and administrative support staff
With a workforce ranging from 40 to 100 personnel on site at peak, this engagement demonstrated Pandanus Workforce’s ability to scale rapidly, maintain consistent quality, and integrate seamlessly with Tier 1 operational and safety systems.
Our embedded on-site Workforce Manager worked shoulder to shoulder with the project’s delivery team, ensuring seamless coordination, ongoing compliance, and a quick response to changing Labour demands. By proactively managing rosters, coverage, and local engagement, we helped ensure every phase of construction remained on schedule and adequately resourced.
Safety, Compliance, and Performance at the Core
Every worker supplied by Pandanus underwent rigorous pre-employment screening, including skills assessments, project-specific inductions, and safety briefings. Our compliance-first approach ensured that personnel were not only site-ready but also aligned with the high safety and quality standards demanded by Tier 1 contractors.
Our team implemented systems to track competencies, manage fatigue, and maintain real-time visibility on workforce metrics. This data-driven workforce planning allowed the project leadership team to make informed decisions, optimise productivity, and reduce costly delays.
Supporting Local Jobs and Regional Participation
One of the key goals of this project was to deliver economic benefits to the local region. Pandanus took this seriously — prioritizing local hires, engaging regional subcontractors, and working closely with employment and training providers to upskill new entrants into civil construction.
By supporting local employment targets, Pandanus not only contributed to workforce sustainability on the project, but also to the broader economic uplift of the region. Our approach helped clients meet their social procurement obligations, while fostering community goodwill and long-term employment pathways.
We also provided wraparound support services for workers relocating to the project, including accommodation coordination, transport assistance, and wellbeing check-ins — all aimed at creating a strong, stable, and motivated workforce.
