Leading Awareness for Employee Mental Health

In May 2019, Deepcore Drilling’s site leaders from New South Wales and Victoria attended workshops in Bendigo to continue supporting a culture of informed awareness of mental health issues in the field. 

The workshops, conducted by Direct EMS, were specifically developed to provide key information and support for supervisors and managers to promote a healthy and safe work environment for all employees and to improve confidence and skills to support workers with mental health issues or illnesses.

Attendees were given the opportunity to role-play simulated scenarios, learn about changes in OHS obligations and enhance their knowledge to dispel inaccuracies and myths surrounding mental health and illness.

 As a company, Deepcore Drilling values the mental and physical health and well-being of our people.
