How can workplaces participate?

  • The Helipad trial will test different ways of delivering a brief online program designed to change knowledge and beliefs around mental health in workplaces.
  • We are aiming to recruit 30-36 Australian workplaces with at least 50 employees, and who have an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to be part of the trial.

If your workplace is interested in participating in our trial, please complete this form and email it to helipad@anu.edu.au.

Alternatively, you can email us at helipad@anu.edu.au and provide your workplace’s best contact details (name, organisation name, email/phone number) so we can contact you to discuss with you what the trial involves and answer any questions.
