Working in the PRL Group you will be part of a diverse community. The majority of our workforce take up residential employment on Christmas Island, and quickly fall in love with the unique culture, the peace and tranquility, and the island’s beauty.
We are the largest private employer on Christmas Island, and have evolved into a diversified and integrated business with interests in Resources, Energy, Agri-Business, Logistics, Facilities Management and the economic development of Christmas Island.
The PRL Group has a rich history that included in the 70’s and 80’s the ‘fight for equity’ resulting in the achievement of wage parity and better conditions for the Asian workforce. This was followed by a struggle to reopen the mine after it was closed by the Commonwealth Government in 1987. The overriding aim of creating PRL and reopening the mine was to create jobs to support the community of Christmas Island. As a result, our company has always had a humble and community-focused approach to business.
Our location provides many challenges, but also rewarding opportunities to make a difference.
Watch what a day in the life of working on Christmas island looks like!
