Program Overview

What is Blueprint?

MATES in Construction is leading the rollout of the Blueprint for Better Mental Health & Suicide Prevention — a national, industry-endorsed program making construction worksites safer and more supportive.

The Blueprint is a industry-backed framework that provides the tools to manage psychosocial safety, protect your people, and create safer workplaces. The Blueprint is free to implement, with no cost to your organisation.

While MATES is already strong in supporting workers directly through on-site training, the Blueprint helps organisations take action—identifying and managing psychosocial risks, meeting their obligations, and improving workplace culture.

MATES provides expert guidance throughout the process, making it clear, structured, and achievable while ensuring meaningful outcomes for your organisation and your workforce.
