Work in the Mines

Work in the mines can be a strenuous and physically demanding profession, roles such as trades assistants, labourers, drillers offsider, machinist, fitters and boilermakers can be arduous, even dump truck driving, and plant operating can be a hard with long hours everyday and repetitive work. Having said that the average yearly income for someone with work in the mines is now $90,000 so it is fair to say you are well rewarded for your effort. There are also other positions that are less physical such as, field assistants, administration, housekeeping, cleaning, and catering. So of these are on the mine site and others are in the mining camps where workers stay.

Because working in the mines can be strenuous, employees are very well compensated in not only payment, but also great accommodations, working conditions, and even transport if employees work on a FIFO basis. FIFO employees working in the mines are flown directly to the work site from their home town, and then flown back to their home town after a few weeks of working in the mines. This is particularly beneficial to those who want to see different parts of the country, or even the world. Employers usually even pay for transportation to and from the site, accommodation, and meals.

Such work is highly competitive, and only the best of the best make it into the mining industry. Contact Mining Australia to find the best way to make your mark in the mining industry.
