The Little Blue Book of Mental Health
COVID-19 Edition
This book provides information, awareness and personal practices to help individuals and families 'ride out' the challenges and uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our Training Is
Your Insurance
A workplace that values mental health is a productive workplace.
A workplace built on a commitment to respect, free from unreasonable and overbearing behaviours, doesn't happen by accident. Neither does a workplace free from risk of hazardous behaviours due to impairment from drugs and alcohol.
But you can achieve this through training, awareness and action.
Reduce compliance costs and productivity losses
Reduce insurance, legal and liability costs
Protect against unfair dismissal claims.
Protect against blowouts in Work Cover premiums and Workers' Compensation costs
Training That Matters
At ADA Australia, we understand that when you invest in training you want it to 'stick':
To drive awareness and behavioural change
To change mindsets and to foster improved workplace culture and practices
To increase satisfaction, commitment and productivity
To produce lasting benefits to the health and wellbeing of all at the workplace
Delivered by trainers with 'lived experience', our drug and alcohol awareness workshops and workplace mental health training will 'stick' with your people. (And can change lives...)
ADA Workplace Mental Health Training
Work stress plays a significant role in the incidence of depression, anxiety and other disorders. But work should not "bust our brains". A healthy workplace is one that protects the mental well-being of its people through good organisational practices, responsive management, a positive workplace culture, support and respect.
ADA Australia's Workplace Mental Health Training will improve productivity and satisfaction at work, guard against hazardous behaviours and promote healthy work- systems and practices.
ADA Workplace Drugs & Alcohol Awareness Training
The misuse of alcohol and drugs comes at a heavy cost to business, to work relationships and productivity, and to families and the community.
ADA's Workplace Drugs and Alcohol Awareness Training programs foster safe-work practices through improved awareness and understanding of the impact of these substances on health and wellbeing, on brain function, judgement and on work
