A safety culture is different than a safety program. Safety is always so important to be mindful of, especially for employees working out in the field.

For tips on establishing a better overall culture of safety, read this month’s Safety First.
Diversifying into various market niches can be a key to success. No one knows that better than Primco Dene Group, a large company in northeast Alberta that provides a variety of services to the northern Canada oilfields, including emergency medical services, man camp catering and management, security and waste-management services. When one branch of services slows down, hopefully others can pick up the slack.
In the Bakken, the job market has shifted, but opportunities still exist. Service and support industry jobs are more important now. Work for construction workers, mechanics and drivers, engineers and welders is still out there. Experience is more important than it once was, but the jobs are out there for those willing to work. More about job market trends can be found in the Bakken Extra column.
Help is out there. Oilfield Helping Hands is a nonprofit charity organization with multiple chapters in many oilfield regions.
