Warehouse

Warehouse staff
finding in Belgium

Warehouse work in Belgium peaks between mid-November and the end of December, when web shops and retail chains process their orders for the holidays, and again at the start of the sales in January. Order picking, packing and stocktaking are then organised in extra teams, often in shifts from 06:00 to 14:00 and from 14:00 to 22:00. Warehouses post those peak shifts on AnyShift, where students and flexi-jobbers can view them per location.

Frequently asked questions about flexi-jobs in Warehousing

Can I work in a warehouse as a student?
Yes, warehouse work is one of the most sought-after student jobs, and since 2025 you may put up to 650 hours a year into it at reduced contributions. Driving a forklift or reach truck does require a certificate and a minimum age of 18. Without a certificate you stay with picking, packing and counting, which make up the majority of the shifts.
When do warehouses look for the most extra staff?
The biggest peak runs from mid-November to the last days of December, followed by the wave of returns in January. Shorter peaks follow promotions, the start of the school year and the change of seasonal collections in March and September. Many warehouses then work in two or three teams, with shifts starting at 06:00, 14:00 or 22:00.
What do I wear for a warehouse shift?
Safety shoes are compulsory in most warehouses, and some clients lend them out if you do not have any yourself. Beyond that a high-visibility vest, which you get on site, and clothing in which you can easily bend and lift are enough. Check the shift description for a cold zone, because then warm clothing is needed.
How quickly can I do a first warehouse shift?
After your registration and identity check you respond to the peak shifts that warehouses in your region post. Teams are usually scheduled a week ahead, but with an unexpectedly large wave of orders shifts appear for the next morning. A short safety briefing on arrival is standard, so allow a quarter of an hour extra your first time.
What is the difference between order picking and packing?
Order picking means you take the right items from the racks with a scanner or picking list and bring them to the packing area. Packing happens at a table or line: checking, packing, labelling and preparing for the courier. Those who like walking choose picking, and those who prefer a fixed spot choose the packing line.
