Stafforce Recruitment

Everyday I would wake up at 4am and get ready for work, the working conditions were very cold and the aprons and other PPE weren't very comfortable but it was all for everyone's own safety. The job required hard physical work and I did end up having back problems at one point from standing up all day and not being able to move about a lot. This job helped me a lot with team working skills and communication. All the people that worked there we're rather friendly but people did create a lot of rumours as everyone saw each other outside of work as well as at work. Overall it was a rather friendly environment and most people were keen to help new comers. The most enjoyable part of the job was meeting new people and learning new skills that helped me a lot with my confidence at work and outside of work.

I worked through this agency for 3 months and found it shocking that it has survived, I'd imagine such little competition in the area allows it to do so. If you work through this agency expect to have to do two jobs, the job they provide after you've corrected the documentation they got wrong and then also all the duties you'll have to perform to get basic information such as hours, department, job position. They will not lift a finger to help or assist you I had asked for documentation up to 8 times before I left and still had not received any of it. Highly disorganised, badly run, bad attitude from staff members, avoid if possible.

It's not bad to work for, the factory I worked at (Country Style) was decently paid and most people were ok. Some people were rude at times but I've worked with worse people. The best part was the flexibility of the work offered, lots of work if you needed it with no pressure to work extra hours if you didn't want to. Worst part was the cleaning jobs, if there wasn't any work they would make you sweep the floor or clean, which isn't too bad but when its a 12 hour shift it gets a bit boring after the 8th hour of sweeping the same patch of floor. Otherwise not a bad place to work and would 100% go back.

A typical day at work was stressful and you didn’t want to be there 2 hours into an 8 hour shift. The people working with me were rude and took no consideration into how you was feeling.
I ‘lost’ my job due to going dizzy once and if you don’t tell them what they want to hear then you are called a liar. You aren’t told what to do or where to go. The whole work place was just horrendous. I enjoyed my job but didn’t think k yay, I .have work in the morning.

I have never been let down by Stafforce recruitment, they have handled all their employees well and managed to keep a good workplace. I can always rely on Stafforce to find me work when I most need it. Along with the excellent pay and hours, Stafforce also give the training to work in a food production environment completely free and it is valid for 2 years. Meaning that whether you stay at Stafforce recruitment or move on elsewhere, you can always use the training in the workplace.

At this moment, I wouldn't waste any time registering with these (or any other agencies) in Grimsby because for the past 4 weeks I've been with them, I've only had 20 hours which is shocking, doesn't scratch the surface when paying the bills.

When it comes to factory work in Grimsby, it seems the Agencies have the monopoly which is bad when it comes to job security, plus it seems a couple of factories are agency employee only, nothing like 5-10 years ago that's for sure

I went in for a chef/kitchen job as they have non-factory jobs posted on the window. You ask about that particular job, but the staff never really acknowledge it and pull out an application form for Young. No thanks, I want the job I have been trained in. They state you need an interview, but they never contact you for an interview. I don't think those non factory jobs really exist. Office staff rude and treat you like a lesser being because they have a secure job and you don't.

Was hired as a staff coordinator and built up a rapour with my factory assignments managers. Then my office managers boyfriend took my role and I was told my role was not needed as there was no such thing as a weekend coordinator. After my role ended, guess what?? There was a weekend coordinator . I loved my job but nepotism saw it end and it was backed up by her manager. I saved all of my correspondence if head office wish to contact me

This agency is absolutely mental. There so bloody rude, yes I understand that people have messed up there job by not going to work or having days of BUT people do have bad days and some people suffer from really bad mental health and yet there trying so hard to live a normal life and make an honest wage BUT Grimsby stafforce do NOT give 2 s’’ts about you

Shift was early morning to early afternoon (6am-2pm). At first there was a lot of work to do, however this died down and ended up struggling to get hours in. Culture was not very nice in the factory. Got made fun of a lot of the time because people did not realise my background.
hardest part of the job was coping with everything.
