Find your future workforce
Why Have Apprentices or Trainees?
WPC Group are here to assist you in developing an new generation of talent to meet your specific needs
Apprentices and trainees bring fresh perspective, new questions, and big ideas to your business. Eager to learn new skills, as well as the ins and outs of their chosen industry, these career seekers are receptive to being taught and mentored by long-term staff members, ensuring vital existing occupational and industry knowledge is preserved, and continuity of skills and transfer of knowledge is passed to future generations.
Control Your Costs
WPC Group receives support from both the State and Commonwealth Government, including grants and exemptions; for example payroll tax that you cannot receive directly. There are many hidden ‘on costs’ when recruiting and employing directly that can add up to another 30% on top of a base pay rate. WPC Group build all these factors into a flexible, fuss free workforce solution.
Manage Your Risks
Our workforce solution allows you to focus on managing your business.
WPC Group understand that your staffing levels may change from time to time. Should you not require the apprentice or trainee or it simply didn’t work out, you can hand them back with the knowledge that WPC Group will endeavour to find them another placement. WPC Group also manage workcover and any claims that may arise.
Save Your Time
Some managers spend 80% of their time managing 20% of their people.
Think about the time and money your company spends each year on recruitment, administration and payroll, let alone keeping up to date with complex awards and legislation. WPC Group can pass on efficiencies through economies of scale, saving you time and money.
Our Role
WPC Group manage the role design, recruitment, (based on your criteria), screening, testing, TAFE/RTO sourcing and government interactions, saving you time and money.
Recruitment
You’ll interview pre-screened shortlisted apprenticeship and traineeship candidates that firstly meet with your expectations. You make the final decision on who you wish to choose.
Onboarding
Our team will manage onboarding, orientation, contracts, OHS, training set-up at TAFE or RTO, payroll & tax. The successful candidate will be ready for work from day 1.
Support
Your organisation and your chosen apprentice/trainee are supported throughout the entire placement by a single point of contact who regularly visits the workplace to liase with you.
Mentoring creates a climate of support, guidance and teaching which boosts apprentice and trainee engagement, productivity and retention.
Mentors meet regularly with apprentices and trainees to proactively detect and address potential sources of stress or disengagement. Our mentors’ ability to be the ‘honest broker’ and act early to mitigate any transitional workplace issues has been proven to reduce the risk of attrition or sudden disengagement, making for a stabler, more reliable experience for your organisation and your apprentices and trainees.
Why Mentoring Matters
“A customised apprenticeship training program through WPC Group continues to be the best way for us to create a pipeline of talent we can depend upon. Time and again, WPC Group has brought us passionate customer-focused people who share our ‘fix it right the first time’ attitude.”
