Anyone after short-term casual work, or agricultural careers –
Having the right workforce to get your product to market and jobs done on time is hard. Generating profit whilst reducing IR, Food Safety and OHS risks are critical to your success.
FarmReady aims to reduce these burdens through the education and preparation of your workers, whether they are short-term casuals or longer-term careers. Better prepared staff who have been pre-trained learn faster. They better absorb critical information during your onsite inductions and early days of employment, resulting in a wiser workforce. By asking new workers to be a FarmReady Cardholder – you are receiving all these benefits for free as well as being proactive in the care of our people and industry.
Freely list your business or employment service in the Employer Directory. Putting you directly in front of FarmReady Cardholders. Be their first choice.
You can still benefit. Just speak with your staffing provider and enter their details against your Employment Directory listing.
The FarmReady Cardholder is for you. Your staff will arrive prepared to learn your specific inductions and on-the-job training. Workers who can hit the ground running reduce costs considerably. Workers who have the correct ‘underpinning knowledge’ about legislation, industrial relations, safety and agriculture will absorb your workforce environment better. Improving productivity and helping you to meet the ever-increasing pressures of staff training in OHS, IR, food safety etc.
FarmReady Hub’s purpose is to train and provide connections. It is not an employment agency and does not place people into jobs. However, the Hub houses information on each Queensland region. Within each of these regions, there is a new Employer Directory where contacts are listed for government employment agencies, programs, industry notice boards, LHPs, farms and employers. This is a free community service.
The FarmReady Employer Directory can freely list employers wishing to be promoted to job seekers – putting you front and centre. You can remove or modify your listing anytime – just ask.
It is the responsibility of a job seeker to contact your listed details and apply for work through your standard process.
Any quality organisation that has information, products and services may list their details on the FarmReady Hub website. Organisations may include government, job actives, agencies, tourism, accommodation, transport or community groups etc.
If you would like to go one step further, any business is more than welcome to provide a discount to a FarmReady Cardholder. Further promoting our regional communities and economy.
The founder of FarmReady holds a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment, Grad Dip Adult LNN in Practice with various practical and business agricultural qualifications. With over 20 years of experience in course design and commercial farm ownership. This FarmReady Card initiative has been developed with vocational training in mind and is a valuable tool for students studying agriculture and agribusiness.
Once a student has completed the FarmReady Card, along with a little extra work and experience, they can be awarded the vocational unit AHCWRK204 Work Effectively in the Industry. It is a useful course for students wishing to study any kind of agriculture and can be credited to various qualifications – the first step in a true learning pathway that leads to employment outcomes.
If you have a program that may benefit from the FarmReady Card, get in contact to open a discussion. Happy to help where we can.
