Do labourers like a timelimit?

Question

Is there a maximum time labourers are willing to work on a project for? Is there a timeframe that is likely to be rejected?

Lee · Accepted Answer

It would all depend on the project, budget, scale etc.

Any tradesperson who is honest and reliable would give you the predicted timescale.  If you're working to a specific time limit, they should be able to tell you if that is achievable or not.  They may increase their headcount of labourers to be able to work to your deadline, increasing the budget accordingly. 

Thanks

it depends on the project.
labours can be on a project for the duration and they can be pretty helpful. Yes, they have a time limit and yes they only should work the agreed times for the duration of the project.

Darren · Answer

No, as long as you pay them as agreed they will keep working unless working conditions change and they decide to move on

Constantin · Answer

Yes but it all depends on the type of job. So there will be long timeframes for some jobs and shorter ones for others. Please feel free to ask any more questions. Thank you.

Karl · Answer

You need to ensure that the travel time is worth the hours to be worked/paid.

Proximity to a job will play a major decision in taking a job, however, providing 2+ hours of work should help in securing a labourer within your capture area.

Hope this helps
