Roto-moulding Machine Operator

1 month ago


Dandenong, Australia Galloway International Australia Full time

**Full-time Casual Afternoon shift worker needed for full training as rotational moulding machine operator (polyethylene plastic products).**

We will start the successful applicant as a full-time casual (38 hrs per week), with the long-term goal of making them permanent if they are a good fit. For that reason, the desire for long-term (not just a year or two), full-time, permanent work will be considered an edge in any applicant.

**Training will be provided **_**on day shift**_ until trainee is ready to work safely with mínimal supervision on afternoon shift. You will have an excellent trainer, but will ideally require high-level English comprehension to ensure you are trained safely and competently.

Work environment is one of the best you'll find, with a reasonable workload, little interference from management, and no toxic workers -- quite a unique workplace from me and many others' experience. A huge perk

Polyethylene and the rotational moulding production process to cook it into parts is completely safe (and food-grade), in terms of what will be handled and inhaled. Basic protective gear will be required of course: hi-vis work clothes and steel-capped work boots (we provide these occasionally for _permanent_ workers), and protective consumables where needed such as ear plugs, gloves, and masks (these are provided by us).

**IMPORTANT**: If you do not consider yourself a hard worker with a good work ethic, please do not apply, we are not interested (Hopefully we can find a genuine worker in the sea of bludgers society pumps out these days ).
----------------------------
- **Pay rate (Afternoon shift)**:

- NOTE: Casuals are not entitled to public holidays or Christmas leave, so these have already been deducted below to show realistic wage figures. However the figures are best-case, i.e. no extra absences -- any unexpected sick days or leave days taken by the worker while casual will lessen the average weekly wage. Still it should give a good indicator._
----------------------------
- Gross hourly wage: $30.95
Maximum gross weekly wage (38 hrs): $1175.97
Gross wage for full work-year: $55,831
After tax & Medicare levy: $46,102
Average weekly in-pocket wage: $887
