AWX Recruitment

a typical day at work involves setting up and starting machinery, cleaning areas as needed, following supervisors instructions, pretty full on once you get going.
I've learned all about how this plants run and how to help maintain it.
management is friendly and willing to help.
the hardest part of the job is the working in the sun or Unenjoyable weather, waiting on instructions if nothing to do.
the most enjoyable part of the job is working with people I know and having something to do.

Depending on whether you're gardening, laying turf or trimming grass your duties could include planting, fertilising, digging, spreading mulch/soil and hedging or mowing, brush cutting and straight edging.
I learned how to operate mechanical equipment such as ride on mowers and augers, and I also learned basic flora nutritional requirements.
My operation manager was really reliable, he was always sourcing out work for the employees, made sure all equipment was in operating order and was easily reachable.
I had great peers, they were all reliable hard workers.
The hardest part of the job would have to be being on your feet all day standing and walking.

I believe I was a victim of a unfair work dismissal from Awx I believe my job was doing well I was enjoying my job then since I was a new employee to the job and as people are I wasn't experienced and I made a few mistakes at the job and then one day Awx rand me up and told me that they didn't want me anymore cause I made to many mistakes. If I had more time and if Awx would of worked with me and gave me another chance I could of learned the machine more. But hey that's work I guess they expect you to be a professional at the first day. My review is bad I feel they didn't support me nor did they help me and say hey look ur not good at that we will try u on something else.??

Short term assignments, allows for casual assignments that have potential for full time work after 6 months. I was indoctrinated on commercial job sites throughout the MortonBay region. Most days I was placed on sites that filled roles to augment staff. My work was assigned by on site management. Sometimes in a team and some times I worked alone. Every day included a care of duty attitude with personal safety as well as care of tools and machinery. 
My tasks included shackling & unshackling of equipment or tools on arrival with Prestart program documentation. 
Implementing traffic control, hazard analysis, and daily planning.

Management treat me and my co-workers with so little respect, compassion and consideration it is sickening. They are painfully incompetent at rostering and every-time I go into the main office I see at least half the people there on computers playing games or watching youtube videos instead of working, including when the rosters are already late that week. When the rosters are on time however, they are usually wrong and are constantly changed making it impossible to plan around.

Their culture favours the wants and demands of their clients over the wants and needs of their workers

The reason we all go to work it’s to get paid and hopefully enjoy the work. AWX is a very disorganised hire company. They use people by dangling the carrot and moving the goal post . You are asked to work a given roster and after planning your week the work is cancelled last minute. Then when you do work they don’t pay you. I am still waiting to be payed. Don’t waste your time with these people. Ive never had this much trouble getting paid before. Very disappointing! 

I think they are a good company. Provided all of the required PPE, training and licences needed for the job.
I learned many valuable traits when working in a environment as a team, others working nearby and how to work safe but sufficient.
I learnt how to deal with hazards and unsafe behavior from my co-workers and most of all reporting "near misses".
I enjoyed working as a laborer/operator as it has many different challenges through out the day.

Working for AWX is not a good idea. They use you then get rid of you. I was injured during my working days with them. So I did a compensation cliam and had my surgery. Now they don't want me to work for them. I have been calling for the past month but no answer and no  guarantee of work. I strongly advice newbies not to work for AWX as what I've gone through is not a good experience.
