Production Worker

We are recruiting production workers for factories in Chatham: line work in automotive-parts, consumer-goods, plastics and packaging plants.

Production work is done as a crew at a line. You are trained on one station, then rotated through others: loading parts, assembling, checking quality and packing finished product. Plants value people who keep pace, follow the work instructions exactly and turn up for every shift, and those are the workers they take on permanently.

Pay and hours

• $19.00 to $24.00 an hour. Automotive-supply plants and rotating or night shifts pay at the top of the range.
• Day, afternoon and night shifts, often rotating; some plants run 12-hour shifts
• 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

• Work a station on a production or assembly line
• Load parts and materials and remove finished product
• Inspect product visually and with simple gauges
• Pack and label finished goods
• Follow work instructions, quality checks and safety rules

What you need

• Legally entitled to work in Canada
• CSA-approved safety boots (green triangle) before your first shift
• Able to stand for a full shift and do repetitive work with your hands
• Able to lift up to 40 lb (18 kg)
• Reliable attendance on rotating shifts

Helpful, not required: previous factory or assembly-line work; experience with quality checks.

The work environment

• Repetitive work at the pace of the line
• Noisy plant floors; hearing protection and safety glasses are provided where required
• 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
