From the Office to the Field: How Ranger Drilling Equips Their Workforce and Drives Female Success
The mining and drilling industry has traditionally been male-led, particularly in remote operations. Yet as more women step into these roles, progressive companies are recognising that true workforce success requires more than recruitment, it requires equipping employees with the right resources, support, and environment to thrive. Ranger Drilling is leading the way, turning ESG and social responsibility into practical action that drives female success.
Remote work environments are physically and mentally demanding. For women, challenges like limited access to menstrual and hygiene products can create stress, discomfort, and safety risks. In a high-pressure industry where precision, focus, and resilience matter, these barriers are more than personal, they can impact operational performance and team safety.
“As women who have worked in remote, high-pressure environments, we know firsthand how small gaps in support can create big barriers,” says Mahaylia, Co-Founder of Flowaid. “Seeing Ranger Drilling take action, not just talk, shows real leadership.”
Ranger Drilling recognises that employing more women is only the first step. Driving female success means removing barriers and providing practical, dignity-first solutions. To address these gaps, Ranger Drilling has implemented Flowaid Emergency Therapy Kits across all sites. These kits, much like first aid supplies, ensure women have immediate access to essential menstrual and hygiene resources, allowing them to work confidently, safely, and with dignity.
By embedding this support into operations, Ranger Drilling is setting a new benchmark for a progressive workforce management:
Driving equitable opportunities for women in traditionally male-led environments
Supporting health, safety, and wellbeing across the workforce
Translating ESG commitments into measurable social impact
Strengthening operational performance and workplace culture
Ranger Drilling shows that true workforce inclusion goes hand in hand with operational excellence. By providing women with the resources, support, and dignity they need, the company builds confidence, reduces risks, and demonstrates that progressive leadership is measured by action, not intention.
From the office to remote mine sites, Ranger Drilling is proving that equipping employees with the right tools drives female success, strengthens teams, and sets a benchmark for inclusion across the industry. In traditionally male-led, high-pressure environments, these forward-thinking practices aren’t just valuable, they’re essential.
“This isn’t about ticking an ESG box, it’s about giving women the dignity, safety and confidence they deserve,” adds Shayne McKinnon, Co-Founder of Flowaid. “Ranger Drilling choosing to lead this shift shows what happens when a company genuinely values its people.”
