Mates in Manufacturing Suicide Awareness Pilot Program Final Evaluation Report

Neil Hall, Shravankumar Guntuku

Research output: Book/Research ReportResearch report

Abstract

This report incorporates the qualitative evaluation of the implementation of the MATES in Manufacturing Pilot Suicide Prevention Program, as funded by SIRA, and delivered in conjunction with Australian Manufacturing Workers Union and MATES in construction. The research sought to examine the extent to which a peer-to-peer suicide prevention project could be translated from the Construction industry across to the Manufacturing industry, and whether the program would enhance mental health literacy, reduced stigma around mental health and suicide, increase the different dimensions of helping behaviours (help-seeking, help-offering and help-acceptance), increase in social connections in the workplace, and catalyse a shift in industry culture towards more mentally healthy work environments.
