What is Mental Health First Aid — and why does your business need it?

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is the practical support provided to someone experiencing a mental health problem or crisis until professional help is available.

In construction and trade industries, long hours, pressure, isolation and financial stress can significantly impact mental wellbeing.

MHFA training equips leaders and workers with practical, evidence-based communication and support skills to recognise signs early and respond confidently.

What Is Mental Health First Aid?

Mental Health First Aid teaches you how to provide initial, practical and compassionate support to someone who may be developing a mental health problem, experiencing a worsening of an existing condition, or going through a mental health crisis, until appropriate professional help is received or the situation stabilises.
This evidence-based, nationally recognised course equips you with the knowledge, skills and confidence to recognise early warning signs, approach sensitive conversations with care, assess risk, provide reassurance, and encourage professional and peer support. You will learn how to respond calmly and effectively in challenging situations, helping to reduce harm, build understanding, and create safer, more supportive environments.
Participants leave the course feeling empowered, capable and confident to make a real difference — whether in the workplace, at home, or in the community.
