Mates In Construction (MIC)

At JR SERVICES QLD, we are proud supporters of MATES in Construction, a vital charity dedicated to improving mental health and reducing suicide rates in the construction industry.

The construction sector faces one of the highest rates of mental health challenges, with workers often dealing with high-pressure environments, long hours, and job insecurity. MATES in Construction provides crucial support through education, training, and direct intervention, ensuring that workers never feel alone in their struggles.

Their peer-to-peer approach empowers workers to recognise the signs of mental health issues in their colleagues and take action, fostering a culture of care, connection, and support. Whether through training programs, 24/7 helplines, or on-site support, MATES is making a real difference in the industry.

By supporting MATES in Construction, we stand with our fellow workers, reinforcing the message that no one should struggle in silence. If you or someone you know needs help, don’t hesitate to reach out.
