Funded Activity Summary

Promoting resilience in employees working in high-stress occupations. Promoting positive mental health in the workplace has been identified as a national research priority. Mental health problems such as depression and stress now give rise to social and economic burdens comparable to those due to physiological conditions such as heart disease. Prevention strategies are strongly endorsed by both Government and peak health bodies as a necessity if this burden is to be addressed. Effective workplace strategies for positive mental health promotion will greatly reduce burdens on the health care system and the community whilst increasing productivity in the workplace and quality of life for individuals and their families.
