Loaders for unloading, moving and warehouse work

Physical work with weight and pace: unloading trucks, moving containers, feeding raw material. We check medical readiness and stamina before arrival, not after the first shift.

The maximum weight and whether the area has pallet trucks are told to the candidate openly - that is what decides whether the person stays.

Loaders checked for stamina before arrival

WORKIN recruits loaders for unloading trucks, moving containers, feeding raw materials, rigging and dock work. Medical fitness and stamina are checked before arrival, not after the first shift.

You tell us what the person will handle, the maximum weight and whether trolleys are available, and we tell the candidate openly: it directly affects whether the person stays. A truck of boxes and a truck of sacks call for different stamina, so the profile shows previous experience.

The migration partner handles the document route, and WORKIN arranges arrival and housing. The visa-free route to the first shift takes 4-7 weeks, with a type D visa 8-10 weeks.

What loaders actually do on a shift

Loading work differs: a truck of boxes and a truck of sacks demand different stamina. So the profile shows what the person has actually handled.

Forklift work is a separate trade with its own licence. Without a valid one the person goes to manual operations.

What we check and what your site needs to have ready

Checked by WORKIN

  • Real experience of physical work with weight rather than a line in a CV
  • Medical readiness and no limitations on load
  • Readiness for shift work and night unloading
  • Documents: passport, validity, grounds for the permit
  • Readiness to live in a group
  • The language spoken inside the crew

Prepared by the enterprise

  • Working pallet trucks and handling equipment where they are part of the process
  • A supervisor for the first shifts and a walk through the zones
  • Induction and health-and-safety briefing
  • Workwear, gloves and footwear to standard
  • Changing rooms, toilets and a place to eat during the break
  • The exact shift schedule and the approximate volume of work

Manual handling limits are set by law. Exceeding them is not something we agree to - neither with you nor with the worker.
