Hire vetted traffic controllers in Sydney in minutes.

Sydney’s construction pipeline stretches from CBD towers to the Western Sydney growth corridor and the new airport precinct at Badgerys Creek. MyGig supplies White Card labour and trade support across the metro area, with the deepest coverage where the work is: the west, the south-west and the infrastructure corridors between them.

A missing traffic controller stops the whole closure: book accredited controllers shift by shift, tickets verified before they can accept. Typical requirements: white card; traffic control ticket (state-accredited, e.g. riiwhs205e).

Post the shift in about 60 seconds and watch vetted traffic controllers apply. MyGig is the Employer of Record: employment contracts, award-interpreted payroll with the clause cited, 12% superannuation, and workers compensation all sit with us. You get one invoice and one flat 15% service fee on wages and on-costs, with the full cost estimated before you book.
