ABOUT THIS DEPARTMENT

What IGO Labour Vendor Sourcing Does

KEY ACTIVITIES

What the Labour Vendor Sourcing Team Does

Labour Procurement & Planning

Plans workforce requirements for every farm site and project across IGO — forecasting labour needs by season and activity, and ensuring the right headcount is sourced and deployed on time.

Vendor Identification & Empanelment

Identifies, evaluates and empanels labour contractors and manpower agencies across regions — maintaining an approved vendor list with performance records for each supplier.

Contract Negotiation

Negotiates labour supply contracts with vendors, securing competitive rates, clear SLAs and legally compliant terms that protect IGO's interests while ensuring fair treatment for workers.

Seasonal Workforce Scaling

Manages large-scale workforce mobilisation during peak farming seasons — rapidly scaling headcount up or down across multiple farm sites in coordination with Agri Operations.

Vendor Performance Monitoring

Tracks the performance of every empanelled labour vendor — assessing attendance rates, quality of workers supplied and contract adherence, and replacing underperforming vendors promptly.

Compliance & Worker Welfare

Ensures all labour contractors comply with applicable labour laws, minimum wage norms and worker welfare standards — protecting IGO from legal exposure and upholding ethical employment practices.
