The Survival Guide for Mining Families
$9.00
The Survival Guide for Mining Families aims to help families survive and thrive despite the pressures of fly-in, fly-out (FIFO) rosters. It’s an invaluable resource tool – both for mining couples and companies – featuring comprehensive advice to boost the emotional resilience of workers and keep relationships strong and happy. We launched the first edition in 2011 and have now sold nearly 160,000 guides across Australia and globally. The 32-page, A5 booklet features professional advice and practical tips from Mining Family Matters founder Alicia Ranford and psychologist Angie Willcocks.
