What is FIFO?
FIFO (fly-in, fly-out) means you fly to the mine site, work a set roster and then fly home for days off. Many Australian mines are remote, so this is the usual way of working.
What a roster looks like
Working days are long and structured and accommodation is in a camp near the site. Exact rosters depend on the employer and location and are explained to you before you decide.
Is FIFO for you?
It suits people who are ready for discipline, teamwork and time away from home. At our seminars we talk openly about family, rest and daily camp life.
