Support Staff
Temporary Resource, Professional Presence
When your team is under pressure – sick leaves, peak periods, inventory, or events – we quickly and efficiently fill in the missing staff. We provide hourly or full-day loaders, certified forklift operators, and drivers – all with clear schedules and accountability.
What We Provide
Loaders for loading/unloading tasks, organizing, sorting, and order preparation.
Forklift operators with valid certification (as assigned – ramp work, shelving areas, etc.).
Useful tips on the topic
Starting Rule:
Manual labor (boxes/light items): ~45–60 boxes/hour per person on a short route with elevator; ~25–35 on long carries/stairs.
Pallets with pallet jack: ~8–12 pallets/hour per team (2 people).
Forklift + loader: ~18–25 pallets/hour with a clear line and no waiting.
Quick Calculation Method:
Determine volume: number of boxes/pallets/shelf meters.
Choose a coefficient based on access (short/long route, stairs/elevator).
Divide volume by productivity → get person-hours.
Divide by desired duration → get number of people.
Example: 300 boxes, long route → 30 boxes/hour. 300 / 30 = 10 person-hours. For 2 hours → 10 / 2 = 5 people.
Factors That Skew Estimates:
Fragile/valuable items (slows pace by 20–40%).
Narrow corridors, shared elevator, peak hours.
Mixed tasks (sorting + organizing + labeling).
Missing staging (everything becomes slower and chaotic).
Tip:
always add 15–20% buffer for unfamiliar sites.
How to Reduce Hours (and Budget) Without Reducing Quality
Smart planning = less unnecessary movement and waiting.
Effective Practices:
Ramp/elevator slot: fix a time window – avoids crowding and waiting.
Staging area: allocate space for temporary arrangement – movement becomes linear.
Labeling and grouping: mark by address/department/floor; no “where was this box?”.
Prepared documents: waybills, lists, access – no last-minute searching.
One coordinator: fast on-site decisions, less confusion.
Clear internal route: “ramp → zone → shelf/position”; no cross-traffic.
Sync with equipment: forklift comes when needed – not earlier.
Accurate weight: exact weight and dimensions prevent double work.
Photo control: quick confirmation of steps, no additional inspections.
Effect: fewer person-hours, predictable outcome, and clear accountability.
Safety is not a brake, but a guarantee that work is done on time and without damage.
From the Client Side:
Access and rules: entrance instructions, PPE, fire exits, restricted zones.
Safe environment: lighting, clear passageways, no dangerous leaks/cables.
Instructions for sensitive goods: fragile/valuable/confidential – clearly marked.
Permissions and responsible persons: who signs, who unlocks, who receives.
From the Contractor Side (Team):
On-site briefing and PPE: helmets, gloves, shoes, vests – according to the site.
Discipline and accountability: supervisor, list of people/hours, reports.
Certifications: valid forklift/crane documents; work only as assigned.
Equipment and tools: provided on request; checked before work.
Service boundaries: no tasks requiring special permits (heights, electrical work, etc.) without prior conditions and written assignment.
Incident procedure: immediate report, photo, description, notify coordinator/insurer.
Conclusion:
clear the roles and conditions at the beginning = safe work and zero “from the inside” to the edge.
