Innovations in Mobile Workforce Housing for Enhanced Living
Remote worksite living presents a unique set of challenges that can significantly impact the well-being and productivity of employees. One of the main issues is the lack of amenities commonly found in urban or suburban areas. Additionally, lack of access to necessary resources due to remote living can make it difficult to relax after a long day in the field.
Fortunately, Cotton Logistics has developed innovative solutions to address these challenges and help your camp feel like a home away from home, no matter where you are.
Innovations for Enhanced Workforce Housing
Staying on top of the latest trends in workforce housing is a great way to keep your crew happy and comfortable while they’re working away from home. Check out these innovations Cotton Logistics is proud to offer our clients.
Modular Formats
Every worksite is going to have its unique challenges and needs, which makes a one-layout-fits-all approach inefficient. Instead, Cotton Logistics uses modular units and construction processes that allow us to customize the layout and resources to your needs. Whether you’re looking to house 50 people or 250, we’ve got you covered.
Additionally, our modular facilities allow us to scale up and size down camps as your crew size fluctuates, ensuring you’re using your space and money as efficiently as possible.
Elevated Necessities
Every remote worksite needs bathrooms, showers, laundry trailers and some sort of dining solution, whether a kitchen your team can use or a dining hall (or both). While you can provide basic solutions for your crew, offering more innovative options will improve morale among your crew. For example, a portable restroom trailer with a heated/air-conditioned interior and recessed LED lights in the stalls and vanity or a shower trailer with well-lit stalls, bench seats and individual entrances with private changing areas can elevate some of the most basic human experiences.
Mobile Command Centers
When you can’t afford to go offline, Cotton Logistics can implement temporary mobile command trailers into your crew camp to supply the technology and equipment you need to keep operations running. Whether you’re a government agency or an oil company, it’s essential to have the tools you need to manage operations in the field.
Advanced Support Services
When your worksite is in a remote location, you don’t always have access to the necessities you need to keep your crew camp running. Fortunately, Cotton Logistics utilizes technology to bring these essential resources to you, no matter where you are. Need electricity? Our portable generators can power your camp. Don’t have access to fresh water? We can deliver tanks of freshwater and potable water to your site. Or, if you’re close enough to a body of water, we can convert seawater to potable water for you!
Benefits of Innovating Mobile Housing for Employers & Employees
When your crew can fully relax, they will often be more alert, focused and efficient when they go to work each shift, which in turn can help you achieve more in less time and reduce safety hazards that can arise when your team is exhausted. A more comfortable experience for your team can also reduce turnover, saving you money from having to continuously replace employees.
