Workplace Mental Health Month Toolkit

1. Download some or all of our resources, to share with your staff.
2. Pick an appropriate time to host a Morning Tea (or afternoon tea, or Friday arvo catch-up) and send around a save-the-date to all your staff.
3. Encourage staff to get involved with the Tune In at Work Calendar.
4. Host your event! Use the Morning Tea guide to: share the message of Tune In with your staff, host a MHM Trivia, use our conversation cards and share about it on your social media using our pre-prepared assets (or make your own!)

This calendar guides you through the month of October with simple daily activities to help you Tune In; by yourself, with your team, with your whole organisation and to reduce stigma.

The tips on this calendar were put together with the help of the WayAhead Workplaces network.

Conversation Cards –

Get the conversation started with these great questions to get you and your colleagues thinking and Tuning In.

These can be used at your Morning Tea, team meetings, around the dinner table… or any time!

Mental Health Month Trivia

Trivia is a great way to bring people together, have a bit of fun, and in this case, learn something too. These are some suggested questions to use at your mental health month trivia, and you can add any questions or topics you like! You can host the trivia at your morning tea, or as a separate event in the month.

These Workplace Stress Less Tips are designed to be useful all year round. You can download the poster or you can visit the website for a deep dive into the psychology and research behind each tip with a plethora of resources and Ted Talks to help you bring each tip to life.

Colouring in is well known to be a mindful activity – why not try colouring in our Tune In Tips – and you could win some of the Mental Health Month merch for yourself
