Offshore Employment: Health and Well-Being
Project Title
Offshore Employment: Implications for Health and Well-Being of Individuals, Families and Communities
Summary
This project was completed over a two-year period and comprised three major components. The first component was a study of health and well-being experience and practice in the offshore oil industry, based on semi-structured interviews with key industry informants involved in health and safety (operators, contractors, regulators, unions, safety committee representatives, industry associations, and researchers). The second component was a questionnaire survey of employees on the production platforms, production and drilling rigs, and supply vessels and tankers, as well as spouses/partners of production workers and marine crew members. The third and final component consisted of qualitative follow-up interviews with representative workers and spouses, care providers (employee and family assistance program deliverers) and offshore medical companies.
