OVERVIEW

About this course.

What this course covers

This course builds practical, non-clinical awareness of mental health in the building and construction workplace. It explains why psychological health sits squarely within the work health and safety framework alongside physical safety; what psychosocial hazards are and which ones appear most often on construction projects; why the industry has an elevated and well-documented need to act; how to notice the early signs that a colleague may not be coping; how to start and hold a supportive conversation without diagnosing or "fixing" the person; how to direct someone to appropriate help; the broad legal duty on a PCBU to manage psychosocial risks so far as is reasonably practicable, framed through the Safe Work Australia model Code of Practice titled "Managing psychosocial hazards at work"; and the everyday steps that build a mentally healthier workplace, from visible leadership to reasonable workloads and clear support pathways such as an Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
