In this episode of The FIFO Project Podcast we talk to Samantha who has been in the mining industry (on and off) for over 10 years.

Samantha is currently a rail protection officer and talks us through what that role requires, how she got into the role and what a day in the life looks like.

Samantha opens up about her real life story of being in the mining industry, how she copes as a female on site and how she has learnt to cope with the loneliness and long weeks away from loved ones.

If you're a female and ever wanted to work in rail then this episode is for you.
