Warehouse and picking
Order pickers, goods-in staff and equipment operators
We source people for your picking pace, your shifts and your warehouse zones. We check experience with scanners, weight and equipment, and show the profile before arrival.
Equipment work is confirmed only where the licence exists - we do not promise what we cannot back up.
What it is and how it works
Warehouse staff for your picking pace and shifts
WORKIN recruits order pickers, receivers, warehouse equipment operators, sorters and warehouse packers. We check experience with scanners, weights and equipment and show you the profile before arrival.
You name the warehouse zones, picking pace and schedule, and we look for people with experience of exactly those zones and weights. Equipment work is confirmed only when the person holds the licence to operate it.
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.

Contract
What we fix in the contract before the start
Hiring runs under the contract for recruitment and migration support. The number of people, deadlines, payment terms and replacements are written in the contract and its annexes.
We send sample contracts and annexes before signing so your lawyer has time to review them.
Questions and answers
What enterprises ask about warehouse staff
Answers to the questions that come up before sourcing starts.
Scanner experience is checked at the interview. The specific warehouse system differs at every site, so the mentor shows it over the first shifts - that is normal practice.
Yes, where a valid licence exists. We check the documents before arrival and add a practical trial on your equipment. Without a confirmed licence the person goes to operations without equipment.
Realistically 4-7 weeks for visa-free countries, 8-10 weeks for a D visa and 10-14 weeks where transit is required. The document route sets the time, not the number of people.
Yes, and it is agreed before arrival. The night pattern is stated at the interview, so the person knows what they are taking on.
If the area is chilled or a freezer, the candidate is told openly. Workwear for such zones is provided by the enterprise to its standards.
Replacement terms are fixed in the contract and the guarantee period is at least 6 months. We keep a reserve of profiles, so a replacement does not start from scratch.
From targeted sourcing to mass hiring. Large groups arrive in waves so the warehouse can take people in and train them.
The enterprise: briefings, protective equipment, safe organisation of zones and equipment traffic. We are responsible for the person arriving ready for warehouse conditions.
