D&D Traffic Management is proud to partner with Maris180, Blacktown chapter providing employment opportunities for youth and indigenous job seekers. To date a total of 6 applicants have been employed with a further 3 in the process of employment with D&D Traffic Management, via this program.
Marist180
is an organisation that strives for positive change in the lives of
young people, particularly those most at risk and on the margins of
society. The Marri-Ba VTEC program is one such program where clients are
provided with the opportunity to complete a Traffic Control course at
TAFE NSW. Those who completed the program are now fully licensed Traffic
Controllers, with their Traffic Control & Implement Traffic Control
Plan RMS tickets.
Geoff Hogbin, Industrial Relations Manager at
D&D Traffic Management recently met with the newly licensed clients
to discuss potential employment opportunities. Mr Hogbin also answered
questions about the application process and employer expectations. All
who completed their qualifications were then invited to attend a D&D
Traffic Management induction program to commence the process of
employment.
Over the next few weeks, the new recruits will
receive additional training at D&D Traffic Management. Once the
training is completed, the new employees will be placed with traffic
control crews where experienced & qualified Team Leaders will mentor
and assist them on the practical aspects of the job requirements. Under
the guidance of their Team Leaders, new recruits will have the
opportunity to contribute to high profile jobs including major
infrastructure projects across Sydney.
Robert Cazzolli, Managing
Director of D&D Group said “We welcome the new employees who have
joined our organisation via the Maris180 program. We are committed to
providing the support, training and opportunities to help all employees
thrive within our organisation. We foster a culture of being inclusive
to all employees within our D&D family”.
D&D Traffic
Management is committed to continuing its partnership with Maris180 and
providing employment opportunities to future applicants.
