Dajcor Aluminium to recruit 200 employees for its first U.S. operation

Dajcor Aluminium Limited, the leading Canadian supplier of extruded, fabricated/machined and anodized aluminium components and assemblies, is reportedly looking for qualified candidates for die correctors and polishers for its first U.S. operation near Hazard, Gov. Matt Bevin. The company is in need of mechanically sound candidates who will be able to meet all the job requirements, as per the report.

Trish Adams, Industry Liason for Eastern Kentucky Concentrated Employment Program, Inc. (EKCEP) said, "They really want the core team to have had some type of manufacturing experience or some type of manufacturing knowledge. Of course, they'll be able to do some on the job training with them as needed."

The factory plans to recruit over 200 new positions over the period of time. It says, "As orders come in they will be adding people on. They will be bringing on some dislocated coal workers."

Dajcor also said they hope to ramp up production in Perry County by the end of February or early March.

Dajcor since the time announced the recruitment received over 600 applications. The application deadline for the position is Friday at noon.

The owner of Dajcor will be in Perry County in a couple of weeks to facilitate interviews.

The company will continue to take resumes over time and will leave the link open once the hiring process starts over each quarter.
