The supplier will provide specialist temporary staff for Neighbourhood Services across one or more of the following three lots (please note that you will not be required to indicate which Lot(s) you are bidding for until the Tender stage of this procurement):

Lot 1: Waste Management Driver/Loader (HGV).

Lot 2: Waste Management Loaders/Environmental Maintenance Operatives (General).

Lot 3: Environmental Maintenance Operatives (Skilled).

Suppliers will be asked to provide the highest quality, suitably qualified staff to meet the Council's specific requirements, these staff will be employed by the Agency under Swedish Derogation. These requirements include the provision of the temporary staff at either 1 working day's notice or in some circumstances at 30 minutes notice. The Supplier will also be required to transport their staff to either the Council's Depot (Littlethorpe, Leicester) or the place of work (should work have already started). Suppliers should note that staff may be required to work unsociable hours which would therefore require transport to be provided during those unsociable hours. Staff provided by the Supplier must meet the levels of experience and training required by the Council and other requirements to be detailed in the Specification. The service is an essential component in the internal organisation of Blaby District Council. The Supplier must therefore be prepared to work closely with the Council to ensure its fitness for purpose, its reliability and its effectiveness.
