The Connectivity Centre could not carry out its work without the commitment and enthusiasm of Multiplex’s subcontractors, and this month we would like to shine a spotlight on one of those subcontractors, Oakdale.

Through their involvement at the Acute Services Building at Westmead and more recently the new Maitland Hospital, Oakdale has supported more than 20 Connectivity Centre trainees and graduates, equipping them with new skills and setting them on a path to a career in construction.

Oakdale has also participated in workshops for Connectivity Centre students and candidates, teaching them about employer expectations and workplace safety.

Mark Gusse, Work Health and Safety Coordinator at Oakdale said, “We fully support the opportunities provided by the Connectivity Centres to locals looking for work. We have had great success with the candidates provided to us and we look forward to working with the centres on future Multiplex projects.”

We appreciate and congratulate Oakdale for their ongoing support and commitment to this very important initiative.
