Mining and energy

On site, a mistake does not stay on a desk: it affects people, expensive equipment and the continuity of the operation. The challenge when hiring is to know, before putting someone on a shift, whether they will follow the protocols when no one is watching.

From an industry risk to a better-supported decision

  1. Industry risk

    Work in long shifts, remote sites and isolation, with high-risk machinery and safety procedures that cannot be skipped. A bad field hire can translate into incidents, plant stoppages or accidents. It is hard to tell in an interview who follows the protocol out of conviction from who only says they do.

  2. Signals to assess

    Disposition to follow safety protocols even when they are uncomfortable or slow. Ability to keep self-control and judgment in long shifts and under fatigue. Reaction to a deviation or risk detected in the process. Technical learning to operate new equipment or processes.

  3. Suggested assessments

    Competencias de Seguridad y Salud Laboral, Competencias en Gestión del Comportamiento y Autocontrol, Integridad, Wonderlic (Inteligencia)

  4. Output

    Ranking and comparable report to prioritize and prepare the interview.
