Workforce Management Challenges in the Oil, Gas & Chemical Industry
Fatigue affects 54% of shift employees, and on-the-job fatalities are 7x higher than other industries in the US. To address this, the American Petroleum Institute (API) has implemented Recommended Practice 755 (RP 755) to limit hours and days of work. This means that Operations executives have to handle the dichotomy of operating within regulations while still minimizing costs
Compounding the burnout problem is the skills gap, particularly among critical engineering roles. Scheduling an already lacking labor pool within the confines of shift regulations on paper or spreadsheets increases the likelihood of accidentally overscheduling employees.
