Seminar Material: Workplace Mental Health and Well-being Forum

On May 7 2019, SIOPA held a Workplace Mental Health and Well-being Forum. The forum was co-presented by the Dr Laura Fruhen, Research Fellow at the Centre of Transformative Work Design (CTWD) and Justine McGillivray, SIOPA President and Senior Inspector/Scientific Officer at WorkSafe WA (Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety).

The impact of FIFO work arrangements on mental health and wellbeing of FIFO workers has been in the spotlight over the last years. The knowledge and skills of organisational psychologists are key in leading the way and supporting stakeholders in shaping FIFO work to protect workers and enable them to thrive.

This event gave first-hand insights into the findings and recommendations of the WA government’s recent research report on the impact of FIFO work arrangements on the mental health and wellbeing of workers.
