At FIFO Focus, our skilled psychologists and behavioural consultants work with employers and individuals to create happier, healthier FIFO workplaces.
The Benefits
What are the benefits of working with FIFO Focus?
If you are an employer or a worker in a remote location, you will know that there are workplace risks, including the increased risk to mental wellbeing associated with this lifestyle. Reduced levels of mental wellbeing impacts not only individuals and their employers, but families and wider society. In some instances, the outcomes of mental harm are more serious and long lasting than physical injuries.
FIFO Focus helps address mental wellbeing issues to create healthier and happier FIFO workplaces. As psychologists and behavioural consultants, we work closely with employers and individuals to increase mental health and wellbeing among FIFO and remote workers.
