A deep dive into onboarding for seasonal agriculture workers

Agriculture companies must be resilient and adapt to the seasons, weather and conditions. This is also true for their workforce; farming organisations often have a revolving door of seasonal staff that must be trained, compliant and ready to start work.

So, how can these companies keep up with the constant flow of new workers? That is exactly where Altora’s innovative onboarding software can help.

Worker document management:

Your workforce will need to supply all relevant documentation such as ID, certifications, personal and financial details and more. Having one centralised platform, with individual worker profiles that your workforce can easily upload their documentation to will not only save you heaps of time but will also massively reduce the administrative stress and give you peace of mind that everything has been completed.

Work health and safety:

With so many seasonal workers coming through your sites, WHS items can easily get missed or misplaced. It is vital that health and safety regulations are adhered to in line with state, industry and legal requirements. Altora’s intuitive software will allow you to set up tasks and workflows to ensure each of your workers have met these important standards before commencing work.

Training:

Training can be a logistical nightmare when you have so many workers starting at different times. Rather than pay a training facilitator to train on site, why not get your workers to complete everything online before they commence? From online presentations to quizzes and videos, Altora’s user-friendly system allows your workers to complete all of their training online. With their own user profile and individual link, you’ll be able to easily track and monitor training requirements.

Not got the digital training content set up? Altora can assist with this. We have a course library that you can use that meets industry standards, which has been created by a health and safety consultant.

Need to facilitate worker sign in and manage who’s on site? If you’re finding logging this manually too tedious and difficult to keep on top of, Altora’s sign-in system could be for you. This is an optional add-on in addition to our Induction Software.

Contractor management:

With seasonal workers, Agriculture companies find our Contractor Management System a useful tool for managing associated contractors. Our Contractor Management System centralises contractor engagement with features such as digital document handling, automated alerts, and comprehensive reporting.

Reporting:

When audit time comes around, the last thing you want to be doing is frantically searching through manual logbooks and paper trails for the information. Altora’s powerful reporting features allow you to pull user and company information with ease.
