FIFO is a significant lifestyle change for workers, and the risks that catch them out – fatigue, isolation, family strain, financial pressure – often sit outside what a standard risk register captures. For leaders and OHS teams, these aren’t personal issues to leave to the worker; they’re operational risks that show up as incidents, absenteeism, and turnover. This session unpacks what’s actually behind the FIFO lifestyle and what leaders need to put in place – from induction through to ongoing support – so workers and their families can genuinely thrive, maintain strong relationships and build real financial security.
