Compliance and Critical Risk Management

Our Critical Risk Management systems ensure every team member has the knowledge and tools to proactively manage risks in the field. With effective, verified controls in place for every task, we create a consistent and reliable approach to safety—protecting our people and your project.

Journey Management

Remote operations come with unique risks, and we take travel safety as seriously as the job itself. Our journey management systems ensure every team member is accounted for—whether they’re flying in, driving to site, or moving between locations. With real-time monitoring and proactive escalation processes, we keep our people safe on the move, so your project stays on track with a team that arrives ready to perform.

Safety Improvement

We know the demands of exploration drilling, and we take every step to protect our team. With hydration testing, fitness-for-work monitoring, and advanced respiratory protection, we proactively manage health risks before they become issues. Our commitment to continuous improvement means a safer, more productive workforce—so your project runs smoothly with a team that’s always fit for the job.

Mental Health & Psychosocial Safety

A safe workplace isn’t just physical—it’s mental too. At Topdrill, we foster a culture where mental health is openly supported, ensuring our crew feels heard, valued, and equipped to manage challenges. Our leaders are trained to recognise the signs of stress and provide the right support, creating a work environment where seeking help is encouraged, not stigmatised. Because when our team is strong, so is your project.

Employee Assistance

Topdrill offers and encourages employees to access our Employee Assistance Program (EAP). This EAP provides professional counselling for all employees, their partners, and dependent children to help resolve personal and work-related issues. This program is accessible at any time, whether the crew is off-swing or on-site.
