Safe, clean and well-paid jobs available in mining industry, which is experiencing a worker shortage
The future of mining is safe, it's clean, it's environmentally sound and it is well-paying. That's the message the mining industry needs to put out on the job market, said Jason Bubba, the chief operating officer at NORCAT
"The labour market shortage combined with the new technology skills offsets really brings a combination and almost a perfect storm, where we need new folks to do complicated tasks and our existing workforce need to be upskilled.""To this day, mining still has that negative stigma attached to it in terms of understanding what a career in mining looks like.
Bubba said mining employers need to create a sense of excitement for new workers about the things they do and that their career is interesting, with potential for improvement and doing newer things. Bubba outlined how NORCAT uses animated video presentations as part of the training regimen for miners being trained on mining vehicles.
