Manufacturing staffing for food, automotive-supply and consumer-goods plants

Production line, machine operators, packaging, quality and sanitation, for plants that run three shifts and cannot stop when someone calls in sick.

Food and consumer-goods production is our largest manufacturing segment.

Overview

What we do

Manufacturers ask us for two things: people who can hold a line rate without hurting themselves, and people who will still be there when the rotation comes back around. Food plants in Scarborough and Mississauga, automotive-parts suppliers in Brampton and Durham, plastics and packaging in Pickering and Vaughan, electronics assembly in Markham: the products differ, the staffing need is the same.

We screen for the specifics of your environment. Food production means food-handler certificates, GMP and allergen awareness, and tolerance for cold rooms. Automotive supply means attention to torque specs and quality holds. Plastics means heat and repetition. Our recruiters have staffed all of them and brief candidates honestly about what the shift is like.

Rotating and continental schedules are where agencies usually fall down. Our workers are placed on a specific pattern, and replacements for absences are handled by a recruiter who knows which shift they are covering.

Screening

How we screen production staff

A plant floor is not forgiving. We check the things that cause injuries and quality holds.

    Food-safety credentials

    Food-handler certificates, GMP and HACCP awareness for food and pharmaceutical environments, confirmed before placement.

    Safety orientation

    WHMIS, lockout awareness, machine guarding, PPE and your site rules, briefed before arrival.

  3. 03

    Physical demands explained

    Standing, lifting, repetition, temperature and pace are described plainly in the interview so nobody is surprised on day one.

  4. 04

    Shift-pattern fit

    Continental and rotating schedules are confirmed against the candidate's transportation and home life, not just agreed to.

  5. 05

    References from manufacturing employers

    Attendance and quality record checked with previous plants.

Questions

Frequently asked

Can you supply staff for continental (12-hour) shifts?

Yes. Continental and rotating patterns are common in our food and automotive-supply placements. We place workers on a specific pattern and manage absences against it.

Do your workers have food-handler certification?

For food-plant placements, yes, or we arrange it before the start date. GMP and allergen awareness is covered in our pre-placement briefing and topped up with your site training.

What do production roles pay in the GTA?

Pay is set by each client. Across our placements, production line and packaging typically run $18 to $21 an hour, machine operators $19 to $27, and quality inspectors $20 to $26, with premiums for nights and cold environments.

How do you handle a line that needs twelve people by Monday?

Call by Wednesday. For general production and packaging we can usually fill twelve from the local database within two business days; machine operators and inspectors take longer because we verify experience.
