Title: Looking for a Job?


1
Looking for a Job?
  • Great Jobs and Challenging Careers Exist in the
    Petroleum Industry

2
Why jobs exist
Aging Workforce
  • relatively few oil and gas extraction workers
    are in their teens or early 20s. Over 65 of the
    workers in this industry are between 35 to 54
    years of age. On average 40 of the industrys
    workforce is expected to reach retirement during
    this decade.

Who will fill the jobs
  • Diversity
  • Employers will need to develop practices to
    attract and train
  • applicants from non-traditional employment groups
    (women,
  • urban youth, immigrants and Aboriginal people) to
    address the
  • supply issue.
  • The Petroleum Human Resources Council of Canada
  • www.petrohrsc.ca
  • Newfoundland and Labrador
  • Local stakeholders view diversity as an important
    piece of the
  • puzzle. Husky Energy leads by example and has
    filed a diversity
  • plan for the White Rose project.
