What would a great mining labour hire model look like?

At Mining People there is no question, in our minds at least, that without a flexible labour hire model the mining industry would not be able to respond effectively to often volatile commodity price markets. There has been a lot written of late on this topic, mainly contributed by unions, politicians and large employers. But we want your views, so, please contribute to our latest anonymous poll below.

Firstly, tell us who you are
Please tell us about some of the things you think work well for labour hire.
Please tell us about some of the things you think do NOT work well.
Lastly, please describe what you think could be done differently to make labour hire work well for everyone.
If you would like to be sent the results of this research directly, please add your email address here

Thank you for taking the time to give us your comments.
