FIFO support groups

FIFO support groups refer to social networks designed for individuals who work on a "Fly-In, Fly-Out" schedule. This work arrangement is common in industries like mining or oil, where employees travel to remote locations for extended periods before returning home. FIFO support groups provide emotional and practical support to these workers and their families, helping them cope with the challenges of separation and the unique lifestyle that comes with such jobs. Members share experiences, advice, and resources, fostering a sense of community and understanding among those facing similar circumstances.
