ZABOtJR - Klllhandsi We have now sent approximately eleven (11) "UilEianda but, doe to the urgency of your neede, there are a few who do not cose up to the standard we would have liked to send*
Advertising for this category has been stopped*
It Is now proposed to endeavour to select care fully any applicants who say apply and continue to send you one or two per week* By so doing, a better type of employee should be engaged, and it will also avoid occasions similar to these which have occurred recently where you require large numbers urgently, necessitating the selection of a poorer type to fill your needs*
Pw.ui6 r* Broadhurat,a visit a discussion with the B*E*P* Pty* Ltd* and the Police Department took place regarding the screening of labour. The Folio# Dept* are willing to co-operate, unofficially. In advising us if applicants havo a record*-
This Is to be regarded as strictly ccofidentlal as the Department is legally boutid not to give information regarding the past record of a oitisen*
Dp to the time of writing, the procedure In this regard haa not been finalised but, when It is in operation, a delay of a few days will occur after an applicant haa been interviewed before he is advised if he haa been engaged or not*
It is proposed to take all particulars from the applicants and tell them that approval from the mine must be sought and we will advise them in a day or two* During this .period^ the check with the Police Department will be made*
If an applicant applies under an assumed name, the Police check will be useless*
It would be appreciated if you would advise
whether you agree with these proposals* /2^
