Societal pressures and the pandemic have forced even the most traditional industries – such as oil and gas – to quickly adapt to changing work models.

While some energy companies are doubling down on becoming the industry’s low-cost producers and service providers, others are diversifying and pivoting towards whole-scale business transformations –but regardless of company direction, HR will be required to find and keep employees, optimize costs and drive efficiencies across health, wealth and talent in a sustainable manner.
