Kaefer Integrated Services

Kaefer where a great company to work for especially for me being the first time working in the mining industry as a Industrial Painter. From the Prestart meetings in mornings, the 5 by 5 prior to starting new job scope and the refocuss meetings after lunch the safety aspect of the company and the information the Management provide for these meetings from weather updates to onsite safety incidents were first class bar none. Learned so much about the Industry due to the Experienced and the Willing of the Supervisors to pass on the Knowledge of the Industry.

Extremely poor management (construction and HR) and overpaid lazy safety advisors lead to a poor/toxic workplace culture within this setting on this large scale project in Darwin. A lot of the time workers overall health and well being was not considered. Workers were often threatened with their job's if they raised any concerns. This is a shame as a lot of hard working employees are treated poorly without respect. I am surprised Kaefer have not had more unfair work dismissal cases.


Pros - Being able to meet and work alongside some hard working people.

The work entailed removing wall sheets and insulation from shut down boiler and associated pipe work. Installing new insulation and reinstating wall and pipe work cladding. 

On the whole the shut down crew were good to work with.

Management tried to keep the crew employed on other projects after the shut down.

Hardest part of the job was doing twelve hour shifts for a thirteen day fortnight.

Best part of the job was fabricating new pipe work and installing it.

Great paying job, Poor conditions, no support from Management or staff, poor safety culture, complete disregard for employee relations. I would never work for this company again after the way management treated their workers, HR was completely useless at there job, could not get anything right after being asked numerous times and management seemed to be a boys club hired from friends and friends of family who had no idea what they were doing.

In time of typical day of work I always done my task a head and perfectly. I have learned not to trust at your co worker because some are educated and high of values/ethics but some is like snake that they gonna bite your reputation. I terms of management always perfect and done the right time. And the work place a lot of rules to rely on do and donts but its good because we work as a team to any task. The hardest part of the job were workers are helping each other. Most of the time when you see that your job is praising by the superior it makes me confidence to do more better.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Getting another job on the same site for better money and conditions 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I’m going to say the management team where so disorganised 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Poor very very poor indeed shocking even. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Getting moved from on job front to the other as priorities changed

I enjoyed my time working for Kaefer in Darwin on the ICTHYS project, good people, good work, great money, unfortunately tooling supply always seemed to be an issue and work/family balance was a bit too much (4:1 Roster). would work for them again though on a shorter roster.

A toxic working environment & culture where management haven't a clue about their personell's skills or abilities & your immature work collegues are threatened by anyone who actually wants to work...

Working with kaefer gave me a chance to experience the hardship of working as FIFO specially being away with the Family, have the chance of meeting new friends and allies, Develop more of my trade skill because of high standard on quality!

i enjoyed working for Monadelphous because the gave me the opportunity to learn about oil and gas and they have a good safety culture ,i found all my fellow workmates to be a happy lot and always helpful to lend handy information regaurding the way tings are done
