More about these jobs

A shutdown is planned maintenance on a mine, processing plant, port or power station while it is stopped. Crews fly in for a set block, often a week or a few weeks, and work long day or night shifts so the plant can restart on time. Shutdown ads usually state the dates, the site, the shift and the trades they need, such as electricians, mechanical fitters, boilermakers, riggers, scaffolders and trades assistants. Many ask for site inductions and tickets, so read the ad for what the employer wants before you apply.

The list is every open ad that FIFOWorks reads as a shutdown: the ad calls the work a shutdown, or it is a short fixed block of work on a plant or site. A shutdown ad that also states a roster is listed here too. The dates, the shift and the site show on a card only when the ad states them. Where enough ads state a rate, a pay summary above the jobs uses only those stated rates, and day and night rates are shown as the ad gives them. Anything converted from a day rate or a salary is labelled as an estimate. Workers do not pay to search or to apply.
