National Workplace Initiative

Series on industry initiatives supporting mentally healthy workplaces

The series on industry initiatives supporting mentally healthy workplaces showcases current industry-level approaches and provides a practical guide for setting up industry-led initiatives.

A growing number of initiatives are supporting organisations to create mentally healthy workplaces across a range of Australian industries - from construction, mining and media to sport, the arts and transport and logistics.

This three-part series aims to support individuals or groups seeking to lead change in their industry to support mentally healthy workplaces. It has been developed by the National Workplace Initiative after research and consultation highlighted the value of industry-led initiatives.

This series includes:  

  • Paper 1 - Creating a collaborative: How to build an industry-led initiative.
  • Paper 2 - Stories from the field: Case studies of pioneering industry action.
  • Paper 3- Industry-led initiatives: Plan on a Page tool.
