Urgent action needed to improve mental wellbeing for FIFO workers
Greens spokesperson for Mental Health Hon Alison Xamon MLC has today called on the Government to urgently implement a number of the recommendations made as part of a Parliamentary Inquiry two years ago into FIFO work and its impact on mental health.
Ms Xamon said the recommendations have also been subject to further work by a Government committee including industry, unions and mental health groups which has been developing a response.
She said many of the 30 recommendations had been widely acknowledged as requiring urgent implementation.
