Flying the Flag for our MATES - last week, we proudly raised our flags across our sites and offices to honour the incredible work of MATES in Construction and the progress made in improving mental health and preventing suicide. We recognise the individuals who are leading the efforts to provide support on all sites, including the exceptional Connectors, ASISTs, and MATES volunteers who have positively impacted many lives across the Australian construction industry.

If you or someone you know is struggling, remember, help is always available. The MATES Helpline can be reached 24/7 at 1300 642 111, and Lifeline Australia is also available at 13 11 14. You can find out more about MATES and the incredible work they do on their website here.

We have been a proud partner of MATES in Construction since 2020, and through their General Awareness and Connector Training, our sites and offices are better equipped with the essential tools to support those in need. With our parent company, Webuild, we are committed to fostering a positive mental health culture.
