Draw the World into Your Workplace
The Petroleum HR Council has long recognized the need for the petroleum industry to diversify its labour force to meet the growing need for skilled employees. In response to this, the Council has developed a useful resource outlining outreach ideas and innovative strategies for employers:
Increasing the Talent
One of the greatest challenges for the petroleum industry is meeting the ongoing demand for skilled labour in hard-to-recruit locations. These locations may be some distance from major populations centres, lacking amenities and spousal employment opportunities, and/or have a higher cost of living. To address this issue, the Petroleum HR Council has developed an innovative resource called Increasing the Talent Toolkit. The toolkit consists of:
- Tools and tips to help manager and HR practitioners recruit and retain the best people for their company.
- Best and promising practices that showcase practical, detailed examples of how companies and organizations inside and outside the petroleum industry are solving HR problems.
- Resources and "Did You Knows?" for more information.
Petroleum Competency Program
The Petroleum Competency Program (PCP) certifies workers in certain occupations within the petroleum industry. The PCP consists of standards of competence developed by the petroleum industry itself. They are intended to build professionalism and equity within the industry, while respecting the existing or planned performance criteria of individual companies. Companies are encouraged to build upon the PCP base of standards. For details on the PCP program, please contact Enform for more information.
