UKCS OFFSHORE WORKFORCE DEMOGRAPHICS REPORT 2013

2012 saw an increase in employees in all age brackets. The largest rise compared with 2011 is in the 30 to 34 age range of 15.7 per cent, and there was also a 13.7 per cent rise in the number of workers under 30. This is encouraging, although the industry still needs to continue to retain and attract mid-career personnel (ages 35 to 49).
