Assembler

We are recruiting assemblers for manufacturers in Windsor: light assembly of electronics and consumer goods, and mechanical assembly of parts and equipment.

Assembly is careful, hands-on bench or line work: fitting components in the right order, to the right torque, and checking your own work before it moves on. Light-assembly roles are open to people without experience; mechanical roles want someone who can read a drawing or work instruction and has used power tools at work.

Pay and hours

• $19.00 to $25.00 an hour. Mechanical assembly from drawings pays more than light assembly; experience with torque tools or soldering moves you up.
• Mostly day and afternoon shifts, Monday to Friday
• Afternoon and night shifts usually pay $1 to $2 an hour more
• Overtime paid at time and a half after 44 hours in a week
• Offered as: temporary and temp-to-perm. While you are on assignment through us, Assured is your employer and pays you.

What you will do

• Assemble parts and sub-assemblies with hand and power tools
• Follow work instructions, drawings and torque specifications
• Inspect your own work and record it
• Pack and label finished units
• Keep your station stocked and tidy

What you need

• Legally entitled to work in Canada
• CSA-approved safety boots (green triangle) before your first shift
• Good hand dexterity and attention to detail
• Able to stand or sit at a station for a full shift
• Able to read work instructions and count accurately

Helpful, not required: experience with torque tools, crimping or soldering; blueprint reading; electronics or mechanical assembly experience.

The work environment

• Repetitive fine work with your hands
• Clean, indoor environments at most sites
• Two paid 15-minute breaks and an unpaid 30-minute meal are standard

What you get

• Paid every week by direct deposit, with an electronic pay stub
• Vacation pay on top of your hourly rate, and public holiday pay when you qualify
• WSIB coverage from your first shift, with tax and other deductions handled on every pay
• A safety orientation before you start, and WHMIS training arranged if you need it
• A recruiter you can phone seven days a week
• Never a fee. Employers pay for our service, not you

Where the work is in Windsor

• East Windsor (Walker Road, the E.C. Row Expressway and the airport): the assembly, engine and battery plants and the parts suppliers around them.
• Oldcastle and Tecumseh: tool, die, mould and automation shops serving the auto industry.

Transit Windsor covers the city, including the Walker Road and Tecumseh Road routes to the east-side plants and Route 250 through Twin Oaks Industrial Park on weekdays. Outside the city limits there is little or no fixed-route service, so the county plants and border yards need a car. Parking is free everywhere.

These roles also suit people living in Tecumseh, LaSalle, Lakeshore, Amherstburg and Essex.
