Construction, mining, oil and gas drilling, and even some scientific and technical experimental ventures often place heavy industry and inherently hazardous work in locations far from conventional emergency response.
This article is targeted to the project managers, site superintendents, planners, and health and safety professionals who are charged with overseeing or assisting work that happens in remote locations. This could include residential construction crews working on a cabin, a mining company working on a new site, an oil well drilling crew working in a remote area, loggers developing a new cut, a road construction crew establishing access to a new mine, or any other industry or construction that is located far away from rapid response to emergencies.
