At the METRONET Victoria Park-Canning Level Crossing Removal project, a freshly branded MATES in Construction Magni RTH (Rotating Telehandler) 8.27 machine stands tall, boldly promoting the MATES initiative. This initiative, powered by industry leaders MCT Equipment, Rigsafe, and Built, is symbolic in promoting mental health awareness in Western Australia, among construction workers.
MATES in Construction WA is dedicated to suicide prevention through community development programs on sites and by providing support to workers in need through case management and a 24/7 helpline. In Australia, we lose a construction worker every second day to suicide.
MCT Equipment is honoured to support MATES in Construction WA, recognising its critical role in our industry. Rigsafe proudly supports MATES, as ‘The Rigsafe Way’ approach and their company values align perfectly with MATES philosophies. Built equally stands with MATES, supporting their vital work in mental health and suicide prevention across the construction industry.
Together, MATES in Construction WA, MCT Equipment, Rigsafe, and Built are not just building structures; they are building a stronger, more resilient industry where mental health and safety are paramount. Standing together, the 3 companies are proud to support MATES in Construction WA and are committed to making a meaningful impact in the Western Australian construction industry.
