HR for the Construction and Project Site Environment

Construction and project sites bring workforce realities that office based HR policies rarely anticipate, from fluctuating headcount to remote camps and short term labour. This programme equips HR practitioners to manage recruitment, discipline, records and wellbeing in demanding site conditions. Delegates work through scenarios common on African infrastructure, mining and civil projects.

What you will be able to do

  • Plan workforce ramp up and demobilisation on projects.
  • Manage recruitment and onboarding for site based roles.
  • Handle discipline and grievances in a site context.
  • Maintain accurate records across dispersed sites.
  • Support worker wellbeing in camps and remote locations.
  • Coordinate HR with site management and labour representatives.
