Another Exciting Year
2020/2021 has been another exciting year for IMMS as we continue to grow and expand our engagement with BHP and our pathway program. Our AIMS placements have increased as well as our Production Technician placements and we have even had some employees transition into permanent roles, apprenticeships and traineeships. With the entry requirements for these roles being minimal with only driver’s licences, medical and police clearances required, we have been able to give some individuals with less or even no work experience access to site based roles opening up enormous opportunities / pathways to a variety of different careers within industry.
Maintenance Contract
In 2018 we secured the BHP NPI Pool and Garden Maintenance contract with the vision of being able to not only help sustain our business in such a competitive labour hire market but to also give us the tool to place lower skilled workers in site based roles that we could support, supervise and mentor individuals whilst they develop the skills that they needed to sustain ongoing employment.
This exposure on site has given us the ability to pick up additional works. We were awarded the yearly sign replacement for BHP for both Finucane Island and Nelson Point as well as the infrastructure yearly wash down for both Finucane Island and Nelson Point which we also completed within the scheduled time.
skilled candidates and labour hire
IMMS have also been placing skilled candidates into different areas on site which we haven’t had a lot of exposure to until recently and are certainly expanding with our skilled worker placements as well.
We continue to work with Austrak to assist with their labour hire needs as they have now finished the Rio Tinto contract and are onto maintenance sleepers, this does however mean that they have reduced the number of concrete beds and are now day shift only.
The FMG VTEC program is still going well with courses still going in both Roebourne and Karratha continuously throughout the year.
IMMS has had another successful year and we continue to strive to improve our processes and expand our opportunities.
With all the boarder restrictions and ongoing closures due to COVID-19 we have been certainly finding it a lot harder to find suitable candidates with so many other businesses being in the same situation.
IMMS continue to advertise and network with organisations throughout Western Australia to promote our services to both candidates and clients. We have placed 168 candidates into the workforce while remaining at 78% indigenous placement. It has been so rewarding not only for IMMS but for us personally to have had so many positive outcomes through our pathway placements and our maintenance contract and we look forward to the year to come.
