Your Specialist FIFO Labour Hire Partner

When a shutdown, project or roster gap needs filling, you need workers who hold the right tickets and are ready to fly out. As a FIFO labour hire provider in Perth and Brisbane, Measured Ability Staffing Australia supplies tradespeople, operators and drivers for mining, resources, energy and construction sites.

We supply labour hire for short-term and project work, and recruit permanent staff when you need someone for the long term. Our focus is the trade and operator roles that keep a site running: heavy diesel mechanics, fitters, electricians, boilermakers, riggers, plant operators and truck drivers.

Before we put anyone forward, we take a full brief on the role, roster, site, point of hire and site requirements, and check that each worker's tickets and licences match what the site needs.

FIFO Labour Hire Built Around Your Site and Roster

FIFO work asks a lot of a worker: long shifts, time away from home and strict site rules. We talk this through with candidates early, so the people we send already know the roster and what life on site involves.

Whether you're a mining operator, a contractor or a project team, we take the time to understand your site's requirements, from medicals, drug and alcohol testing and inductions to point of hire and accommodation.

We supply workers on labour hire for shutdowns, construction phases and project peaks, and recruit permanent staff for ongoing roles.
