Business Outlook
Pros
Interesting incentives if you can get a full time perm position- safety oriented, many opportunities internally.
Cons
Rio Tinto is known to lay off full-time perms as easily as contractors, its doesn't matter its boom or bust. Also prefers to deal with contractors than full-time perms for cost effectiveness Also- recruitment services for Canada to be outsourced, just like they do with people and organizational services in Australia. Rio Tinto does not invest in communities like the small mines they acquire used to before being taken over. This is devastating for local populations.
