THE CHALLENGE

The hiring and retention challenges resources & mining businesses face every day.

Distance amplifies every people problem

When your team is hours from the nearest city, disengagement and retention issues are harder to spot and faster to escalate. You need consistent insight into how remote teams are doing, not the once-a-year survey nobody fills in.

Compliance requirements are extensive

Safety, regulatory, and industry compliance in resources and mining is demanding. Standard 11, dangerous goods, high-risk work licences, medicals, drug and alcohol clearances. Manual tracking creates risk that audits will find.

FIFO mental health and isolation drive attrition

Mental health and isolation are the dominant retention issues in FIFO operations. Workers do not always tell their supervisor when they are struggling, and the next thing you see is a resignation, a roster gap, or an incident.

THE SOLUTION

How Assessely solves it.

Reference checks and verification

Thorough verification for safety-critical roles with AI fraud detection before anyone travels to site. Catches fabricated experience and inconsistent dates before the flight is booked.

Safety compliance and licence tracking

Standard 11, dangerous goods, high-risk work licences, medicals, and drug and alcohol clearances captured digitally before arrival on site. Expiry tracking with reminders.

Safety-critical assessments

Role-specific assessments that verify safety thinking, decision-making under pressure, and operational knowledge before anyone travels to a remote site.

FIFO-friendly mobile pulse surveys

Short, mobile-first pulse surveys workers complete in under four minutes on the bus or in camp. Response rates above 70% are normal where annual surveys get under 20%.

eNPS by swing, crew, or site

Measure loyalty across FIFO swings, crews, and sites. Find which rotations are at risk and which are working before the resignation lands.

Exit interviews

Understand why people leave remote operations before the pattern costs you a swing of overtime and a recruitment campaign. Pay, roster, supervisor, or the work itself, the data tells you which lever to pull.

IN THEIR WORDS

What resources & mining teams say.

Real moments from people using Assessely in small and medium-sized businesses today.

FIFO crews don't sit at desks and our old annual survey response rate was about 14%. Trialled the mobile pulse survey on one crew, got 73% in the first week. Drivers fill it in on the bus. Bit of a no-brainer once you see the numbers.

Drug and alcohol, safety inductions, the lot. One record per worker, ready when the auditor walks in. That's the entire value proposition for a mining HR team.

First reference check we ran came back flagging that the candidate had given us his housemate as a referee. He didn't get the job, obviously. Don't think we'd have caught it ourselves.
