At Corehesion, operational excellence is not just about technology—it’s about the people behind it. Unlike traditional Fly-In-Fly-Out (FIFO) work models, Corehesion has implemented a localised workforce strategy, ensuring that team members are either sourced from nearby areas or stationed at dedicated hub locations for the work week.
This approach fosters stronger support systems, enhances job satisfaction, and ultimately leads to better service for clients.
FIFO work arrangements are common in industries requiring remote or regional support. However, they often contribute to fatigue, mental strain, and decreased employee engagement due to extended time away from home. Recognising these challenges, Corehesion sought to develop a model that prioritises employee well-being while maintaining high service levels for clients.
To eliminate the lifestyle challenges of FIFO, Corehesion:
- Hires Locally: Where possible, team members are recruited from nearby communities, ensuring they remain close to home and family.
- Establishes Hub Locations: Employees stay at well-equipped, comfortable hub accommodations during the work week, promoting a structured work-life balance.
- Improved Employee Satisfaction: Team members report higher job satisfaction due to reduced travel demands and better work-life balance.
- Stronger Client Support: Onsite teams are more engaged, responsive, and able to provide superior assistance due to their well-being being prioritised.
- Lower Turnover Rates: By eliminating the burnout associated with FIFO work, Corehesion retains highly skilled professionals longer, ensuring continuity in service delivery.
- Enhanced Community Engagement: Hiring locally strengthens ties with regional communities, supporting economic growth and sustainability.
Corehesion’s commitment to employee well-being through a localised workforce approach is redefining industry standards for operational support teams.
