MENTAL WELLBEING FOR THE WHOLE COMMUNITY

Transforming Mental Health Awareness in the Construction Industry

MHA Academy is a not-for-profit organisation and an Approved Training Organisation (ATO) dedicated to improving mental health awareness across industries. Over the past seven years, we have worked alongside leading global companies to transform workplace mental health culture. Through our Encompass Programme, we have helped organisations build resilience, develop resources, foster psychological safety, and create mentally healthy workplaces.

Resourcing Construction Companies to create Safer, Healthier Work Environments

The construction industry faces unique mental health challenges, from high-pressure environments and long hours to job insecurity and cultural stigma. These factors contribute to stress, absenteeism, accidents, and even suicide.

The Encompass Mental Health Aware Online Course equips construction professionals with the knowledge and practical strategies to create a psychologically safe and supportive workplace.

 

Why Mental Health Matters in Construction

Mental health issues in construction can impact:
✔ Safety – Mental strain affects concentration, increasing the risk of accidents.
✔ Productivity – Employees with strong mental well-being are more engaged and
efficient.
✔ Retention – A supportive culture helps attract and retain skilled workers.
✔ Company Reputation – Prioritizing mental health demonstrates commitment to
employee well-being.
✔ Business Costs – Reducing absenteeism and turnover lowers operational expenses.

The Encompass Mental Health Aware Online Course combines self-paced online learning with an interactive webinar, ensuring participants gain both foundational knowledge and real-world application in a dynamic and supportive format.
