“…By and large, consideration has zeroed in on skills like consistency, cautiousness, and constancy as determinants of individual safety conduct. These practices, thus, are supported by extensive safety in an association, and in this way, add to hierarchical capacity under normal working conditions (Rasmussen & Ahsan, 2021).…”

The offshore oil and gas industry gives a considerable number of occupations to the United States' workforce. Numerous families upheld by these positions dispersed along the Gulf Coast of Mexico comprehend the undeniable safety worries that accompany working in the offshore oil and gas industry. The oil and gas industry positions as perhaps the most unsafe industry out there when risk isn't suitably managed. The blend of incredible hardware, the item under high tension, remote, challenging to get to areas, and erratic climate altogether raises health and safety risks. Health and safety additionally immensely affect the primary concern.One of the most hazardous professions both physically and mentally is working on an oil and gas platform, because of the isolation, the extreme weather conditions, the location conditions, and the operating of heavy machinery and equipment for hours at a time that can cause a high risk of injuries and death. If something goes wrong in an offshore location, the results can be disastrous. So Safety should always be the number one concern for both employers and employees. When safety becomes a secondary thought, serious accidents, injuries, and even deaths can occur. In this research, I want to discuss the safety issues that employees face at the workplace both physically and mentally, and also safety management in Oil and Gas Industry.

“…Other sectors have much less exposure to safety climate study. In recent years, safety climate studies in the general oil and gas sector have been conducted in various countries, such as Norway [28,29], Denmark [30], Canada [31,32], Nigeria [33], United Arab Emirates [34], Iran [35], and Malaysia [36,37]. More specifically, in the gas station sector, there were only three publications found, two in Ghana [38,39] and the other in Indonesia [14].…”

Accidents in gas stations may cause injury or even death to people. Moreover, an accident in a gas station might halt its operation for some time. When an accident takes place in a region with scant amount of gas stations, it may lead to fuel scarcity in the area, affecting the economy and sparking other issues. Therefore, safety climate and safety performance in gas stations need to be evaluated. Safety climate has been used as a tool to assess the safety performance of an organization at a given time. The aim of this study was to understand the influence of safety climate on safety performance in gas stations in Indonesia. A total of 129 gas stations were selected. To assess safety climate, a safety climate questionnaire was used, while the safety performance was captured by conducting on site structured observations. The assessment shows that gas stations have a good level of safety climate, especially when it is compared with other industrial sectors in Indonesia, such as construction. The study findings also show that safety climate has a significant positive impact on safety performance. Three safety climate dimensions with significant positive influence on safety performance are management commitment, communication, and personal accountability. Therefore, improvement efforts should focus more on these dimensions to boost safety performance in gas stations.

Healthcare

Workers in the oil and gas industry are exposed to numerous health risks, ranging from poor health behaviours to the possibility of life-threatening injuries. Determining the most appropriate models of healthcare for the oil and gas industry is difficult, as strategies must be acceptable to multiple stakeholders, including employees, employers, and local communities. The purpose of this review was to broadly explore the health status and needs of workers in the oil and gas industry and healthcare delivery models relating to primary care and emergency responses. Database searches of PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Scopus were conducted, as well as grey literature searches of Google, Google Scholar, and the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers website. Resource-sector workers, particularly those in ‘fly-in fly-out’ roles, are susceptible to poor health behaviours and a higher prevalence of mental health concerns than the general population. Evidence is generally supportive of organisation-led behaviour change and mental health-related interventions. Deficiencies in primary care received while on-site may lead workers to inappropriately use local health services. For the provision of emergency medical care, telehealth and telemedicine lead to favourable outcomes by improving patient health status and satisfaction and reducing the frequency of medical evacuations.
