MATES in Mining
Vincent Borg's Company Details
Whilst we have one of the world's best health and support systems, research tells us that only 7% of men are likely to seek any kind of help when they are struggling, this means 93% are struggling in silence before their death and not reaching out for support. Our support system is predominantly framed around men needing to seek help, posing a major challenge. At MATES in Mining we believe in shifting the paradigm to help offering, building communities of MATES who look out for MATES, who take action because they know what to look out for, engage their MATES to talk with a MATE, and do what MATES do best - help a MATE.The MATES in Mining program is an integrated community development program of resilience programs and support – one without the other is insufficient.MATES in Mining is an initiative of the Australian Mining industry (unions and employers) based on the successful MATES in Construction program in the Australian construction industry.
