MATES in Mining is an initiative of the Australian Mining Industry (unions and employer supported) based on the successful MATES in Construction program, aimed at reducing high rates of suicide and improving resilience and better mental health.
MATES is an industry-led, research-backed charity, that's building a volunteer network of eyes and ears on the ground, trained to recognise the signs a workmate might be struggling with life and connect them to help.
We lose a worker to suicide every second day. We also know our workers are 6 x times more likely to die from suicide than an accident at work.
In the last 12 months 30% our apprentices have thought about suicide.
A suicide is said to impact at least 135 people (conservatively).
In 2021, MATES was recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as an example of global suicide prevention best practice.
Our 24/7 National helpline is: 1300 642 111
MATES Branches: Queensland, Northern Territory, New South Wales, South Australia and Western Australia
