Here for every FIFO Family Every step of the way
We support FIFO families to create happy, healthy + sustainable FIFO lifestyles.
Because when FIFO families thrive, so do our communities.
FIFO life can be a rollercoaster, right?
It’s not easy for everyone to understand the realities of FIFO life – but we do. We know that loneliness and isolation can be among some of the toughest parts of the FIFO lifestyle – both for the workers on site and their families at home.
That’s why we host our FIFO Family Meet-ups + Events — to bring people together with other FIFO families, who get it.
If you’re searching for a community where you truly belong, this is it.
These meet-ups are designed to build real connections, giving you a chance to grow your FIFO network and make life a little less lonely – and a lot more fun!
How do we support
FIFO Families?
The FIFO Family Project began as a solution to the lack of support for FIFO families. We provide community events, educational resources and workforce wellbeing initiatives to ensure every member of the FIFO Family receives the necessary support to successfully navigate this unique lifestyle.
Events + Meet-ups

Our monthly meet-ups are your chance to meet others who understand the

workplace wellbeing
Supporting the wellbeing of FIFO families is vital for creating safe and sustainable FIFO workforces. We offer bespoke workplace wellness initiatives, to address the specific needs of your workforce. Let’s work together to ensure that when FIFO families thrive, your business does too.
“I thought it was just me”
Living a FIFO lifestyle means a lot of adjustments and not just for the family member working away. It often starts with a multitude of inductions for your FIFO partner but the often-overlooked family transition at home, is barely mentioned.
Yet, it’s a whole lifestyle shift for every member of the family.
Sometimes, it can feel like you’re left figuring it all out on your own and finding things out the hard way. There is one thing I hear over and over again at our community meet-ups: “I thought I was the only one but now I know it’s not just me.”
I promise, you’re not alone.
The FIFO Family Project is here to provide easy access to all the support and FIFO lifestyle information you need.
FIFO LIFE CAN BE CHALLENGING AT TIMES
