Information

MATES in Construction has one simple but hugely ambitious aim – to reduce the number of lives lost to suicide in the construction industry. In 2019, construction had the highest male suicide rate for any occupational group.

Join Wellington Branch for General Awareness Training (GAT) with Alex Taimalietane and Graeme Haxton where the following areas will be addressed:

• Raising suicide awareness

• Encouraging workers to seek help when dealing with difficult situations

• Helps workers to recognise the signs of suicidal thoughts in themselves and in their mates

• Shows workers how to get help both for themselves and for their mates.

You don’t need to be in the construction sector to attend this session. The learnings can be applied across all industries.
