A Strategic Solution: Overcoming Skill Shortages in Mining and Resources

The mining and resource sector is undoubtedly an industry faced with constant challenges, regardless of location, from the United States to Canada and Australia.

The combination of running a global business and the rise of technological advancements means that many organizations grapple with several issues. The biggest challenge is the persistent shortage of skilled talent. We all know that skill scarcity directly impacts efficiency, project timelines, and overall profitability.

Talent Setbacks

When you consider the demand for hiring the best talent to fill roles that include project managers, financial analysts, geologists, and engineers, the task of staffing becomes increasingly difficult due to several factors, including:

  • Global Competition: A fierce and competitive industry means mining companies are vying for access to the same talent pool.
  • Skill Gap: Changes in operational methods and the rise of new technology have only increased the skill gap.
  • Geographic Considerations: Challenging work in isolated, remote environments reduces the allure of wanting to fill a role at a mine.
  • Project-Based: When downturns happen, it can hinder efforts to retain staff.
